Dislike seen in clash at Edgbaston (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hate

'dislike' is the definition.
(to hate is to dislike strongly)

'in clash at edgbaston' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'HATE' is hidden within 'clash at edgbaston'.

'seen' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hate that I've seen before include "Passionately dislike" , "Abominate" , "Strong aversion" , "powerful emotion" , "Antipathy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
