Retirement: Imagine, how would you feel when a player who single-handedly made the team champion many times, whom the audience used to buy tickets to see on the field, suddenly announces retirement? And if this retirement is just because no one took his name in the auction - then how ruthless the world of sports starts to seem. One such heartbreaking decision came to light on Monday.

The player we are talking about is none other than Pradeep Narwal, who has been the most successful raider in the history of Pro Kabaddi League (PKL). At the age of 28, he announced retirement from the game.

No team was ready to buy Pradeep Narwal in the auction of PKL season 12. After this, he decided to retire and will now start a new innings as a coach. The pain of the rejected player is clearly visible behind this decision.

Long list of records, but farewell very quiet

Pradeep scored 1801 raid points in his career, which is the highest in PKL history. His average was 9.47 raid points per match. He played five seasons for Patna Pirates and won the title for the team three times.

Later he was also a part of UP Yoddhas and Bengaluru Bulls. However, his performance with these teams was not the same as before. In the last few seasons, he could not return to top form. Despite getting constant opportunities, he could not prove himself.

Now will make a career in this field

Pradeep announced his retirement in a live video with sports journalist Sunil Taneja and said that now he will train young players as a coach. He believes that the experience he has gained on the field will now help the new generation to move forward.

This decision of Pradeep is not just the retirement of a player, but a mirror of the truth in which market demand dominates more than performance. The player who once used to get the most applause in the stadium, today departed without any noise.
