This was supposed to be a problem within my configuration and $PATH variable. I followed mysql on mactutorial to resolve this.

In my terminal opened up configuration by going to vi ~/.zshrc. Located line for export PATH="..." and appended :/usr/local/mysql/bin to it.

Above procedure resolved my issue.

On MacOs Catalina Open a terminal and run.

 sudo nano /etc/paths

Added to end of file

/usr/local/mysql/bin

Save the changes and quit. Reloaded terminal. Open a new terminal and run.

 mysql -u root -p

Its works for me.!!
