Draw bat without black grip (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

attraction

'draw' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bat without black grip' is the wordplay.
'without' suggests deleting specific letters.
'black' becomes 'b' (as in pencil classifications).
'grip' becomes 'traction' ('traction' can be a synonym of 'grip'**).
'bat' with 'b' removed is 'at'.
'at'+'traction'='ATTRACTION'

(Other definitions for attraction that I've seen before include "Appeal" , "Charm" , "Pull" , "Something that draws visitors" , "Drawing power" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
