Blast delivery (4)

I believe the answer is:

ball

I believe this is a double definition.

'blast' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'delivery' is the second definition.
(delivery in cricket)

(Other definitions for ball that I've seen before include "Social function for dancing" , "Sphere; function" , "Delivery" , "Formal dance gathering" , "Throw a dance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
