Outcry about securing victory by bit of audacious trickery (7)
I believe the answer is:
evasion
'trickery' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'outcry about securing victory by bit of audacious' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'about' could be 'on' (as in a book 'on' a certain topic) and 'on' is found in the answer.
'victory' could be 'v' and 'v' is found within the answer.
'bit' could be 'i' (resembles 1, a binary digit or bit) and 'i' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'eas' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for evasion that I've seen before include "Act of avoidance or escape" , "Subterfuge" , "Circumvention" , "Act of avoiding" , "attempt to withhold truth?" .)
