At the 1998 World Aquatics Championships in Perth, Mitchell finished fifth in the 200m breaststroke and then won silver at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur, behind fellow Australian Simon Cowley, who won both breaststroke events.

After Australia's only 100m breaststroker Phil Rogers put in a poor performance in the individual event, Australian head coach Don Talbot dropped Rogers and Mitchell swam in the heats of the 4x100m medley relay, even though he was not originally selected in the 100m breaststroke.

Mitchell was replaced in the final by Regan Harrison (who came fourth in the 200m breaststroke), who combined with Matt Welsh, Geoff Huegill and Michael Klim to claim silver, behind the United States who broke the world record.
