Fielders run amongst players to take advantage of other movement (10)

I believe the answer is:

slipstream

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'advantage of other movement' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both types of natural phenomena as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'fielders run amongst players' is the wordplay.
'fielders' becomes 'slips' (cricket term).
'run' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'amongst' indicates putting letters inside (I've seen this in other clues).
'players' becomes 'team' (sports team).
'r' going within 'team' is 'tream'.
'slips'+'tream'='SLIPSTREAM'

'to take' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for slipstream that I've seen before include "Air behind any quickly moving object" , "Draught" , "Air behind a moving vehicle" , "Air current" , "Closely follow" .)
