There is only one or 2 Turks on the national team but they are always looking for interest from expats who have been here a long time (3 years plus). If there is enough interest in Fethiye, a team could be set up there and I believe the ICC are willing to show their support by providing kit etc.
Anyone interested just mail me and I will gide you to the right contacts. They have been trying to get a number of teams together in Turkey so they can play against each other.

A Turkish national cricket team! I love it! Bad start to be beaten by Estonia. But, Starman, could you report back on the 12th following the final game against local rivals Bulgaria?

What next? A Turkish rugby union team to add to the sides that can beat those boring rugby drudges - England?

There is already a Turkish national rugby team. I watched them play the Istanbul ottomans a few months back.
