13A: Shout of "Owzat" produces complaint (6)
The answer is 'outcry' = complaint (def) but cannot understand the rest of the clue?
I'm guessing it's something to do with cricket? it always is when I'm stuck?!

Owzat = How is that? Cricketers asking for L.B.W. against a batsman.

There is an alternative way to type Caps on chromebook.
Hit the Alt+ search (the magnifying glass key) . You should see an arrow appear on the bottom right notifications bar and a pop-up should alert you that Caps Lock is on.
