Definite caught-and-bowled (3-3-3)
I believe the answer is:
out-and-out
'definite' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'caught-and-bowled' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'out'.
'bowled' becomes 'out' (cricket).
'out'+'and'+'out'='OUT-AND-OUT'
(Other definitions for out-and-out that I've seen before include "Utter and thorough - never in" , "Thorough and complete - emphatically not indoors" , "Thorough, surpassing" , "Absolute; completely" , "Utter, absolute" .)
