Caught greeting in hollow (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cave

'hollow' is the definition.
(caving is a kind of hollowing)

'caught greeting' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'greeting' becomes 'ave' (I've seen this before).
'c'+'ave'='CAVE'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cave that I've seen before include "Watch out" , "Large grotto" , "Underground enclosure with surface access" , "part of rocky coastline?" , "Hollow in a rock" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
