Ball bowled to pitch under the bat (6)

I believe the answer is:

yorker

(Other definitions for yorker that I've seen before include "Cricket delivery aimed at the feet" , "Difficult cricket delivery to play" , "Type of cricket delivery" , "Cricket ball pitched to the bat" , "often new" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
