Game of skill caught old Nazi (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chess

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

'game of skill' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'caught old nazi' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'old nazi' becomes 'hess' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'old' bit.).
'c'+'hess'='CHESS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chess that I've seen before include "In which two bishops will participate" , "Musical - board game" , "show" , "Game with kings and queens" , "Sixteen-men-a-side game" .)
