Unmukt Chand is one of the brilliant players on the Indian cricket team. He has led the nation to the U-19 World Cup victory in 2012. He has called time on his Indian cricket career and now, on Friday, had announced to bid adieu to the BCCI and seek better opportunities around the world.
The Delhi-born cricketer, who played an unbeaten 111 to steer India to the U-19 World Cup win, failed to make an appearance for the senior team. His inconsistent performances throughout his domestic career have led him to take this decision. In a two-part post, Chand wrote that while he will rue the missed opportunities, he thanks the BCCI and DDCA for providing him with an opportunity at a young age.
Chand took his to Twitter and wrote that his decision to exit the game has been taken after thinking for a while. He still could not find the perfect beginning to this letter. He says that he doesn't know how he should be feeling cause honestly, he is still struggling to figure it out. He added he has grown up playing cricket with just one and only dream of playing for India. He quoted that "The love for this game has been very pure for me and I am grateful to have achieved a few milestones along the way. From getting up early in the morning for training, scheduling my entire day around cricket and trying to find out ways to become a better player has always been my drive and motivation and still keeps me going as the journey is only halfway through."
At last, he wrote "Lastly, I would like to say that things have not been as smooth in the last few years and opportunities have been denied. Though a part of me is not at peace with the way things have unfolded in the last few years, I still choose to see the silver lining and with fond memories bid adieu to BCCI and seek better opportunities around the world."
