Neil Turk
Neil Richard Keith Turk (born 28 April 1983, Cuckfield) was an English cricketer. He is a left-handed specialist batsman with occasional right-arm medium-pace bowling, as well as a FIFA approved referee. Furthermore, Neil Turk studied Sports Science at Exeter University from 2001-2004.
He used to play club cricket for Wimbledon CC in the ECB Surrey Premier League, where he was 1st team captain.

At the end of the 2006 season, Turk was released from Sussex, with his "perceived lack of future opportunity" cited as reason for his departure. He played one first-class match, scoring 24 and bowling three wicketless overs against the touring Sri Lankans in 2006.
