The Indian Premier League has been a truly special chapter in my career, and I have cherished every moment playing in it. I owe my deepest gratitude to my coaches – Shri K.K. Gautam and Late Shri Pankaj Saraswat-for nurturing and shaping me into the cricketer I became.' 'Today is a deeply emotional day for me as I officially announce my retirement from all forms of international and domestic cricket. Chawla made his final competitive appearance for Uttar Pradesh in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in November 2024, recording figures of 4/12 at the Wankhede Stadium. 'Though I step away from the crease, cricket will always live within me. I now look forward to embarking on a new journey, carrying with me the spirit and lessons of this beautiful game,' he concluded.
