Working team where batter stands? (2-4)

I believe the answer is:

on-side

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

'batter stands?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'working team' is the wordplay.
'working' becomes 'on' (on can mean working or activated).
'team' becomes 'side' (both can mean a sports team).
'on'+'side'='ON-SIDE'

'where' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
