Paul Valthaty Bursts Into Starring Role in Indian Premier League - NYTimes.com

Paul Valthaty Bursts Into Starring Role in Indian Premier League - NYTimes.com: "Paul Valthaty of Punjab has never played in a match classified as first-class. He is a cricketing foot soldier, a low-priced domestic backup to the expensive international talent recruited at the I.P.L.’s rotisserie-style player auction earlier this year.

Yet two astonishing performances in the span of four days last week rocketed him from obscurity to fame.

Most observers were staggered on April 12 when Gilchrist took Valthaty in with him at the top of the order against the reigning champion, Chennai."
