Default battery charging question

quick question can i use a 7.2 volt charger to charge 6.0 volt reciver nickel metal hydride batteries, or will it burn up the batteries? my plan was to take a hobbico 7.2 volt 2-3 hour wall charger to charge them or i have a 15- minute ac/dc charger i can use also . let me know what you think.
