Dambulla, Aug 25 (ANI): India beat New Zealand by 105 runs in the ODI played at the Rangiri International stadium here on Wednesday with the help of Virender Sehwag's 13th ODI century and a blistering performance by the pacers to enter the tri-series final to be played against Sri Lanka on Sunday.

Sehwag slammed a swashbuckling century as India recovered from early jolts to post 223 in their must-win cricket tri-series match against New Zealand

Sehwag (110) notched up his 13th ODI century to give the Indian innings a respectable total after being at a precarious 66 for four at one stage on a tricky pitch here.

Chasing a modest target of 224, the Kiwis were all out for 118 in 30.1overs. India pacers Munaf Patel and Praveen Kumar claimed three wickets each in this win. (ANI)
