Team in the Spanish flat (6)
I believe the answer is:
eleven
'team' is the definition.
(I know that eleven is a type of team)
'spanish flat' is the wordplay.
'spanish' becomes 'el' (I've seen this in other clues).
'flat' becomes 'even' (level).
'el'+'even'='ELEVEN'
'in the' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for eleven that I've seen before include "1 and 1?" , "Cricketing side" , "sports team?" , "Football or cricket team?" , "Cricket 18" .)
