Comments on the clue
1.No definition.
2.2 better. Scorers wouldn't score this way; can be maiden without six dot balls.
3.Not a crossword clue in my opinion
4.Totally impossible to solve.
5.Far too obscure – and the dots in a maiden over are scored in two lines of three
6.Too obscure.
7.My favourite for its simplicity and cheekiness.
