I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'time on strike' is the definition.

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for innings that I've seen before include "Chance to score" , "Time at the crease for one batsman (or eleven)" , "Batsman's spell at wicket" , "Time spent batting" , "Time at the wicket" .)
