Defeat easily and holler, winning a match to dance endlessly (4,3,6)
I believe the answer is:
beat one hollow
'winning a match to dance endlessly' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'defeat easily and holler' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'defeat' could be 'beat' (beating is a kind of defeating) and 'beat' is located in the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is found within the answer.
'holler' could be 'hollo' (synonyms) and 'hollo' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
