Chatterjee belonged to the generation of Indian women cricketers who played in the decades following the formation of the Women's Cricket Association of India in 1973. During this era, organised women's cricket in India developed through domestic inter-state tournaments and limited international fixtures, and players competed largely on an amateur basis.
Cricketers of Chatterjee's generation contributed to building the institutional and competitive base of women's cricket in India, paving the way for the sport's eventual integration with the BCCI and its later professionalisation.
