He scored 8,856 runs with 29 hundred and 34 fifties, with an unbeaten 314 being his highest.

He was selected for the three-match Test series against South Africa in Dec 2021 as a replacement for the then-injured Rohit Sharma and was also part of the squad for the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka in Feb 2022. This was the closest the 35-year-old came to playing for India. The selectors were impressed with his 96-run knock in the first innings against a South Africa 'A' side in Bloemfontein. More Than a Team: The Rise of CSK & the Whistle Podu Army Former Gujarat Ranji coach Hitesh Majmudar, who was with the squad when Panchal made his debut, told TOI, 'He was unfortunate to not play for India. He did remarkably well when Gujarat won the Ranji Trophy in 2016-17, and also in the domestic T20 competition in 2013-14. He was the backbone of Gujarat batting.'
