Panchal, who serves as the Strategic Advisor for the platform, had a successful first-class career with Gujarat. Across 127 matches, he scored 8,856 runs at an average of 45.18, including 29 centuries and 34 half-centuries.
Speaking about the move, Panchal said that after playing more than 100 first-class games, representing India, and getting the opportunity to captain India A, he believed retirement after the 2024–25 domestic season was the right time to begin a new journey and take on a different challenge.
