Detailed batting strength (2-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

in-depth

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

'detailed' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'batting strength' is the wordplay.
'batting' becomes 'in' (cricket term).
'strength' becomes 'depth' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in'+'depth'='IN-DEPTH'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for in-depth that I've seen before include "Thoroughly and comprehensively" , "searching" , "Detailed and thorough" , "Comprehensive and thorough" , "Detailed (investigation)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
