WATCH: BBL star Nikhil Chaudhary being a complete Virat Kohli fanboy

The Big Bash League(BBL) 2023-24 has been giving us some great games going forward and a lot of talent. There have been some young and talented players, who have impressed a lot of fans and experts in this tournament. From Spencer Johnson to Oliver Davies. These players have made it clear that the BBL is not far away from being as iconic as the Indian Premier League(IPL), which is still leading the charts in being the most successful franchise tournament in the world. Some of these players have also come from every nook and corner of the world to play in the most competitive T20 leagues in cricket history and be a star in the future.

One of these Young stars is batting all rounder from the Hobart Hurricanes Nikhil Chaudhary, who has shown his talent as a lower order finisher in the league already. He is also the 2nd Indian born player in the BBL after U19 World cup winning skipper Unmukt Chand. The 27 yr old has already got one of the best strike rates in the league so far and has continued to impress everyone. Playing with experienced players like Tim David and Matthew wade is also a great opportunity for any player and it will be interesting to see how his talent will be groomed in the future.

Nikhil being another Virat Kohli Fan

In a segment called 5 questions, the attacking lower order batter was asked if he was a big fan of Virat Kohli to which Nikhil gave a really positive reply saying “For sure man. I am a big fan of his aggression, and obviously skills. But how good he is a cricketer. I have been totally following him for the last 10 years. And he has been growing and growing.” This statement proves that he is a big fan of the great Indian cricketer and he has been following him for a very long time.

This shows why Nikhil Chaudhary’s determination to still continue in the game, where he has struggled as well as working in a mexican restaurant and courier service boy before getting a BBL contract. He is following one of the best batters in the world right who is breaking records for fun. Nikhil is in a great position to be a long term choice for the Hurricanes as a prodigy. He has already shown his skills as a finisher down the order with some big hits on both sides of the ground and it will be a joy to watch him continue to play with the same mindset in the future.
