'show' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'caught in country before half-term' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'country before' becomes 'india' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'half-term' becomes 'te'.
'c' put within 'india' is 'indica'.
'indica'+'te'='INDICATE'

Can you help me to learn more?
