Appeal (cricket)

In the sport of cricket , an appeal is the act of a player on the fielding team asking an umpire for a decision regarding whether a batsman is out or not. According to Law 31 of the Laws of Cricket , an umpire may not rule a batsman out unless the fielding side appeals. A bowler's appeal combined with the wicket keeper is crucial in umpire's decision.

According to the Laws of Cricket, an appeal is a verbal query, usually in the form of, "How's that? Since the taking of a wicket is an important event in the game, members of the fielding team often shout this phrase with great enthusiasm, and it has transmuted into the slightly abbreviated form, " Howzat?

Sometimes one or other syllable is omitted entirely, the player emitting an elongated cry of simply "How? Most players also raise their arms or point at the umpire as part of the appeal. Some players have established their own trademark appeals as well. Although technically an appeal is required for the umpire to make a decision, in practice it is often obvious to all that a batsman is out, and the batsman may walk off the field without waiting for the decision of the umpire. This is invariably the case when a batsman is out bowled or to an obvious catch.
