Chatterjee belonged to the generation of Indian cricketers whose careers spanned the years immediately following Indian independence in 1947, a period during which domestic competitions such as the Ranji Trophy expanded steadily and provided the principal pathway for cricketers seeking national recognition.
Chatterjee featured in Indian first-class cricket, contributing to the regional cricketing structure that fed into India's national selection pool. Cricketers of his cohort typically represented their state or zonal sides in the Ranji Trophy and the Duleep Trophy, and several also turned out for institutional teams associated with banks, railways and other public sector employers that supported the game during this period.
As a long-serving domestic cricketer, Chatterjee is part of the broader history of Bengal's contribution to Indian cricket, a tradition that has produced numerous national players and administrators. His career, beginning in the post-independence decades, reflects the consolidation of organised first-class cricket in eastern India.
