Examine striker, international (4,5)

I believe the answer is:

test match

'international' is the definition.
(cricket international)

'examine striker' is the wordplay.
'examine' becomes 'test' (testing is a kind of examining).
'striker' becomes 'match' (a match can be struck).
'test'+'match'='TEST MATCH'

(Other definitions for test match that I've seen before include "Strike a light!" , "International affair" , "International contest" , "Sort of game" , "Lord's international?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
