"Howzat" is what is now commenly used to "appeal" in cricket. A
fielder will appeal if they think the
batsman is out.
The fielder has to ask the Umpire (Referee) "How is that?" before the Umpire will give a decision. However most players know scream it at the top of their lungs so it sounds like Howzat
Also known as "Asking the question"
