Limit to what one on strike could achieve? (8)
I believe the answer is:
boundary
'limit' is the definition.
(I know this)
'what one on strike could achieve?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'un' (northern English dialect form of 'one') and 'un' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for boundary that I've seen before include "Limit; hit at cricket" , "4 possibly" , "Six, perhaps" , "Four, perhaps" , "Line marking the outer limits" .)
