Cricket Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye Kriket) is the ICC-recognised governing body of the sport of cricket in Turkey. It is Turkey's representative at the International Cricket Council and is an associate member[1] and has been a member of that body since 2008. It is also a member of the ICC Europe (earlier the European Cricket Council).

As cricket is not a ministry-sanctioned sport in Turkey, the organisation isn't legally structured as a sports federation;[2] rather, it's officially considered to be a sports club.[3]
