Capture girl's heart with good deliveries? (4,1,6,4)
I believe the answer is:
bowl a maiden over
'capture' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'girl's heart with good deliveries?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'with' could be 'w' (short for with) and 'w' is present in the answer.
'deliveries?' could be 'over' (a cricket over consists of six deliveries) and 'over' is found in the answer.
'girl' could be 'ola' and 'ola' is found within the remaining letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
