Howzat was an album by the Australian band Sherbet released in 1976. It spent two weeks at number one on the Australian album charts in 1976.

Title track

The title track was also a number one hit and remains the group's biggest hit, especially outside of Australia, reaching the top 5 of the UK charts and also entering the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

It is often used as a cricket anthem and is sometimes loudly played by ground organisers at limited-overs matches. "Howzat" is a catchcry used by cricketers when appealing to the umpire for a wicket.

It was featured on the soundtrack of the New Zealand-made film In My Father's Den,^[1] and later covered by the Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra.^[1]
