Hi folks I am doing a crossword in You magazine No 1408 and am stuck on a couple, I know nothing about cricket - Help

26a Clive Lloyd's bowling effectively did this to the opposition (7) ?e?i???
18d Cllive Lloyd's team enjoyed taking this (7) ?e?e???

Thanking you

[berniecuddles]

26a deliver?

[murraymints]

revenge .... given on your other thread

[factor-fiction]

26a is a bit of an odd one as Clive Lloyd was only an occasional bowler. The answer probably isn't a cricketing term

[poorclare]

Yes Murraymints but it was not there when I put the questions up here,
I am still trying to work out 26a I do think the answer is Innings but then it means that my 21d is wrong, I had prizes for the answer - the question being
What do points make (6) P?i???
Thank you

ps Must get back and Danny13 for his answers

[factor-fiction]

points make prizes

[factor-fiction]

innings doesn't seem right to me for 26a.
What letters would you have once you put prizes in?

[Cloverjo]

I don't think innings is the answer to 26a. I think you're correct with points making prizes.
26a Could be something like "reviled"?

[poorclare]

could that 26a (keeping 18d as revenge) be Besiege? - not really a cricket term is it.

[Anneyelland]

I reckon it MUST be beseige ?
