In a sense cricket team uneasy (7)
I believe the answer is:
anxious
'uneasy' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'in a sense cricket team' is the wordplay.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'sense' becomes 'nous' (nous is a kind of sense).
'cricket team' becomes 'XI' (a cricket team, from Roman numerals for nn).
'a'+'nous'='anous'
'anous' placed around 'xi' is 'ANXIOUS'.
(Other definitions for anxious that I've seen before include "Jittery" , "Worried, nervous" , "Fretful, worried" , "Nervy" , "On edge" .)
