Emerging from the dark to be titled as IPL's 'hot property', Paul Valthaty is keen on spending some time alone to meditate before proceeding for upcoming tournaments including the Sri Lankan Premier League (SLPL).Also, he's also keen on attending prayer sessions, which have always been instrumental in instilling positivity in him.
The KXIP opener, Paul who made a killing with his batting abilities in IPL 4, also wants to relax. "I love privacy. Even during the rough patches I used to sit and meditate. That has made me strong," said 27-year-old swashbuckler. Unlike his blistering knocks and aggressive on-field approach, Paul maintains a systematic approach in life. He seldom loses his calm. "My perception of life is different. I take things as they come. I have been through tough times and I feel that made me strong," he said.
Very few people know that when he was recovering from an eye injury he would sit alone and meditate.
"Today if I have made a comeback it's only because of the grace of God." After a hiatus followed by meditational stint, Paul wants to work hard to get into Mumbai's Ranji team to eventually book a berth in the Indian squad.
