In 2001, two years after Anil Kumble took 10 wickets in an innings, Mohanty achieved a similar feat. He achieved this feat in a domestic match where the South Zone was playing against the East Zone. His effort helped East Zone to bundle out South Zone for just 113 runs.

South Zone had two all-time great batsmen in their side, The Wall, Rahul Dravid and Very Very Special Laxman. Little mattered to Mohanty on that day as he was on top of his game. His bowling held East Zone to win the match by four wickets while chasing a modest target of 167 runs.

He finished with a figure of 10-46 in the first innings. He also played 45 ODIs and two Test matches for Indian. He took 57 wickets in the 45 ODIs that he played and four wickets in his Test match career.
