Context:
Owzat for a happy couple! Kevin Pietersen and Jessica Taylor go out for romantic meal togetherBy CHRIS JOHNSON All By This Author - 15/01/2009 11:40:34When cricketer Kevin Pietersen gave up his England captaincy last week, he declared he still had 'unfinished business as captain'. And perhaps that included going out for a slap-up dinner at plush London restaurant Nobu Berkeley.

@oristarA,
It could be cheeky slang spelling for the following definition:
Quote:
how's that 20 up, 5 down

a term used in cricket, appealing to the umpire, for a wicket
how's that said the fielders

KEYWORDS
hazza owsat owzat out wicket

@oristarA,
The "How's that?" cry made by cricketers is usually written (and pronounced) as "Owzat?". Often the question mark is omitted or replaced with an exclamation mark.
