Nikhil Chaudhary To Join Hobart Hurricanes After Being Acquitted In Rape Case: Reports

Big Bash League: India-born cricketer Nikhil Chaudhary is likely to return to play for Hobart Hurricanes in the Big Bash League (BBL) after being found not guilty of raping a 20-year-old woman in a car in Townsville in 2021. Chaudhary, 27, stood trial in the District Court in Townsville, charged with one count of rape, and was declared not guilty by the jury. However, Cricket Tasmania on Tuesday confirmed to local reporters that they were not informed of the charge or court action.

Cricket Tasmania's high-performance general manager Salliann Beams told reporters that the legal process is still going on about Chaudhary and said he would likely play the upcoming season.

"(There are) some legalities through that process," reported ABC Sports. "It's not so much the incident because we know that nothing happened, legally not guilty and everything.
