For which there’s prize money after dismissing opener? (7)
I believe the answer is:
innings
'for which' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'prize money after dismissing opener?' is the wordplay.
'prize money' becomes 'winnings' (money won).
'after dismissing opener?' means to remove the first letter.
'winnings' with its initial letter taken off is 'INNINGS'.
'there's' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for innings that I've seen before include "Period of batting in cricket" , "part of cricket match" , "cricketers must have" , "In which deliveries are received" , "Batting stint" .)
