\nनिवृत्तीच्या घोषणेनंतर एका मुलाखतीत पुजाराने सांगितलं की, एका आठवड्यापूर्वीच त्याच्या मनात निवृत्तीचा विचार आला आणि तेव्हापासून तो याबाबत विचार करत होता. पुजारा म्हणाला, “यापूर्वी मी याबाबत फारसा विचार केला नव्हता. पण गेल्या आठवड्यापासून मी यावर विचार करत होतो की, हाच योग्य क्षण आहे. त्यामुळे आज जेव्हा मी हा निर्णय घेतला, तेव्हा हा माझ्यासाठी आणि माझ्या कुटुंबासाठी अभिमानाचा क्षण आहे. भारतीय संघासाठी खेळणं हे माझं बालपणीचं स्वप्न होतं आणि जेव्हा ते पूर्ण झालं, तेव्हा हा प्रवास दीर्घकाळ चालला.”

\nविशेष म्हणजे, पुजाराच्या या खुलाशातून असं दिसतं की, दुलीप ट्रॉफी 2025 साठी पश्चिम क्षेत्राच्या संघात त्याला स्थान न मिळाल्याचा परिणाम त्याच्या या निर्णयावर झाला असावा. यानंतर अशीही बातमी आली होती की, पुजारा सौराष्ट्राकडून रणजी ट्रॉफी हंगाम खेळण्यासाठी उपलब्ध असेल, परंतु त्यापूर्वीच त्याने निवृत्ती जाहीर केली. यामागचं कारण स्पष्ट करताना पुजारा म्हणाला, “सुरुवातीला मी रणजी ट्रॉफी खेळण्याचा विचार करत होतो, पण नंतर मला वाटलं की, जर तरुण खेळाडूंना संधी मिळाली, तर ते लवकर तयार होतील. म्हणून हा माझा वैयक्तिक निर्णय होता.”पुजाराच्या निवृत्तीमुळे भारतीय क्रिकेटच्या एका युगाचा अंत झाला असून, चाहत्यांना त्याच्या दीर्घ आणि प्रेरणादायी कारकिर्दीच्या आठवणी कायम स्मरणात राहतील.
