Squad, underpowered, needing boost to energy? (4)
I believe the answer is:
team
'squad' is the definition.
(I know that squad can be written as Team)
'underpowered needing boost to energy?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'energy?' could be 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2) and 'e' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'tam' 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 team that I've seen before include "Squad; side" , "Group working in combination" , "People working together" , "A set of players or workers" , "(Football) side" .)
