Dambulla: India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Wednesday said barring Virender Sehwag his batting department was having a tough time in the ongoing cricket tri-series in Sri Lanka.

Virender Sehwag scored a century before Munaf Patel and Praveen Kumar both took three wickets to seal a crushing 105-run win for India over New Zealand in the final group game of the One-Day International tri-series in Dambulla.

New Delhi: India slid further down with the fourth wicket of Suresh Raina who soon followed Yuvraj's wicket to put Inida in danger of getting wrapped up inside 50 overs. Tim Southee was the leading wicket-taker with two scalps.
