Following a successful IPL season for Deccan Chargers, Pragyan Ojha made his international debut in 2008. Ojha had a solid start to his career and was mighty effective with his steady left-arm spin bowling, especially in Indian conditions.

After impressing in ODI cricket and Test cricket, Ojha was included in the Indian T20 side for the World T20 in 2009 that was held in England. His inclusion in the side was his reward for picking up 18 wickets in IPL 2009 and playing a huge role in Deccan Chargers' maiden title win.

Ojha did not disappoint during his T20I debut as he picked up Shakib Al Hasan on his very first ball. The left-arm spinner continued his good work picking up 4 for 21 in 4 overs and India defeated Bangladesh by 25 runs. Ojha was named the man-of-the-match for his terrific bowling performance.
