In his debut season, Mohit Sharma was used as a strike bowler by MS Dhoni in the powerplay overs. Playing against a star-studded Delhi Capitals (then Delhi Daredevils) side, the young pacer did not shy away from playing his natural game.

Chennai Super Kings batted first in that match and posted a defendable score of 169 on the board. However, with the likes of Virender Sehwag, Mahela Jayawardene and David Warner in the opposition batting unit, this total looked chasable. Mohit Sharma bowled the second over of the Delhi innings and rattled the stumps of David Warner to give CSK the first breakthrough. In the same over, he dismissed no.3 batsman Manprit Juneja to shift the momentum in CSK's favor.

In his next over, he scalped the wicket of Virender Sehwag to complete his 3-wicket haul in just 7 deliveries. Sharma finished with figures of 3/10 as CSK won the match by a huge margin of 86 runs.
