Two drivers have been charged after a crash that saw a car fall into a weir and kill a 20-year-old budding cricketer.
Muhammad Kashif was a passenger in a blue Audi when it allegedly veered off Audley Road in the Royal National Park in Sydney yesterday morning.
The car sank in the water, and while the 20-year-old driver was able to free himself, Kashif was trapped, with divers finding his body later in the morning by police divers.

Police were later told the Audi and a Mercedes were allegedly travelling along the road when the crash occurred.
Police say there does not appear to have been any contact between the two vehicles.
The driver of the Audi and the driver of the Mercedes, an 18-year-old man, were taken to hospital for mandatory testing while a crime scene was declared and investigations began.
Both were arrested late yesterday and taken to Sutherland Police Station.
The Audi driver has been charged dangerous driving occasioning death, driving in a dangerous manner and negligent driving occasioning death.
The 18-year-old man has been hit with multiple driving charges, including driving while suspended, as well as possessing and attempting to prescribe an illicit substance.
They were both granted conditional bail to face court on June 18.

Kashif who was studying electrical engineering, was a keen cricketer from Casula in Sydney’s south-west.
“Everybody will be remembering him because of his energy and smile,” former cricket coach Omar Khan told 9News.
“We can’t forget his smiley face.
“I won’t be forgetting him for the rest of my life.”
