Experiment with cricket match (4)
I believe the answer is:
test
I believe this is a double definition.
'experiment with' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'cricket match' is the second definition.
(a test is a kind of cricket match)
(Other definitions for test that I've seen before include "Analyse" , "Examine to play international cricket match" , "Short exam" , "Assay" , "Check" .)
