Homesdale Carl Nitschke (often, incorrectly, "Holmesdale", also known as "Jack", "Sling" or "Slinger") (14 April 1905 in Adelaide, South Australia – 29 September 1982 in North Adelaide, South Australia) was an Australian and South Australia cricketer.

The son of Carl Hermann Wilhelm Luder Richard "C. H." Nitschke (1866–1922), Nitschke's uncle Richard Nitschke was a famous baritone. Nitschke's grandfather Wilhelm Nitschke (c. 1817–1889) was the founding owner of the Hackney Distillery.

Described by E.W. Swanton as "a left-handed bat of belligerent inclinations",^[1] Nitschke played in only two Tests; against South Africa in Brisbane and Sydney in 1931, and could probably be considered unlucky to have arrived at his best years at the same time as cricketing greats such as Don Bradman, Bill Ponsford, Bill Woodfull, Archie Jackson, Stan McCabe and Alan Kippax.

He had far more impressive statistics in domestic first-class cricket where he scored 3,320 runs at an average of 42.03, including nine centuries.

Nitschke was also a successful racehorse breeder, with "Dayana" winning the Perth Cup in 1973, and the derbies of four states in 1972.^[1]
