    Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna: Five-time Olympian and India’s most celebrated paddler Achanta Sharath Kamal has announced his retirement from table tennis, with the upcoming WTT Star Contender in Chennai set to be his last outing in India colours.

    At 42 years old, Sharath, who is a record 10-time national champion, is currently India’s top-ranked men’s singles player, placed 42nd in the latest WTT ranking list.

    "As I played my first international tournament in Chennai and I will be playing my last international match in Chennai.

I hope I can live that dream through the young talents," Sharath said in a press conference in Chennai.
