Chris Kuridrani (born 12 December 1991), formerly Chris Nasiganiyavi, is an Australian rugby union player of Fijian descent. His usual position is wing. He signed on to play for the Queensland Reds in 2014.
Kirisi Nasiganiyavi was born in Brisbane, where his father Isei Nasiganiyavi played rugby for Queensland. He is the younger brother of Nemani Nadolo (formerly Ratu Nasiganiyavi before he adopted their mother's maiden name of Nadolo in 2009).
During his junior career he was selected for several representative teams, including Queensland Under 16s. He attended Marsden State High School and Ipswich Grammar, and represented Queensland at the Australian Schools Rugby Championships in 2008 and 2009.
He is the cousin of Tevita Kuridrani, and in 2011 he adopted the Kuridrani family name.
In 2010, he played colts rugby for GPS Old Boys and was chosen for the Brisbane Under-19 team later that year. He was selected for the Fiji Under-20 team and played in the 2010 IRB Junior World Championship in Argentina, and scored a try against New Zealand in the opening pool game.
Chris Kuridrani briefly switched codes at the start of 2011. He played rugby league in the Toyota Cup for the Brisbane Broncos for five rounds before returning to play Premier Rugby with GPS and train with the Queensland Reds squad. He was selected as an injury replacement for the Australia Under-20 team at the 2011 IRB Junior World Championship in Italy, and scored a try in the semi final against New Zealand.
