Gibraltar vs Turkey Team Preview & Squads

 

Gibraltar

 

Iain Latin, a dependable all-rounder, leads GIBR with calm authority and tactical insight. His ability to contribute in both departments adds depth to the side. Latin’s leadership was evident in Gibraltar’s recent successful run against Serbia.

 

Gibraltar’s batting unit is anchored by experienced names like Louis Bruce and James Fitzgerald, providing both stability and flair. The middle order is well-stocked with players like Kenroy Nestor and Nikhil Advani, capable of finishing games.

 

In the bowling department, Gibraltar relies on the likes of Jack Horrocks and Sean Delgado to control the innings. Kabir Mirpuri and Joe Wilson bring variation to the attack with their disciplined lines and lengths.

 

In their most recent outing against Serbia on September 30, 2024, GIBR showcased a dominant all-around performance. Serbia managed only 106 runs, and Gibraltar chased it down comfortably in just 12.5 overs. Louis Bruce and Andrew Reyes starred with the bat while the bowlers maintained control throughout. With 8 wickets in hand and 43 balls left, Gibraltar completed a dominant win.

Turkey

 

Gokhan Alta, TKY captain, is a spirited leader known for his aggressive intent and on-field passion. He contributes with both bat and ball and often plays a pivotal role during the middle overs. Alta is focused on building a stronger, more competitive Turkish side in regional tournaments.

 

Turkey’s batting hinges on experienced campaigners like Ibrahim Altinoluk and Mustafa Balkis. They have power hitters like Muhammad Fahad and Ilyas Ataullah who can provide quick runs but lack consistency.

 

Zafer Durmaz and Hasan Yanar are key to Turkey’s bowling plans, offering pace and control. Esref Yaver and Murat Yilmaz add variety, but the team lacks genuine wicket-taking threat in the middle overs.

 

In their last match against France on June 15, 2024, at the EUROPE QLF, TKY struggled to keep up with the asking rate. They fell short of 168, being bowled out for 127 in 19.3 overs. While Ilyas Cetin showed some fight, the top order collapsed under pressure. France secured a comfortable 40-run win over Turkey.
