Indifferent over after spinner on song initially (2-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

so-so

'indifferent' is the definition.
(I know that indifferent can be written as so-so)

'over after spinner on song initially' is the wordplay.
'over' becomes 'o' (cricket abbreviation).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letters of 'spinner on song' is 'sos'.
'o' put after 'sos' is 'SO-SO'.

(Other definitions for so-so that I've seen before include "Mediocre" , "Only moderately good in repetitive way" , "Indifferently good" , "'Passable, middling (2-2)'" , "Of middling quality" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
