Virender Sehwag smashed the fastest century by an Indian to lead his country to a crushing win over New Zealand in their rain-shortened fourth one-day international at Hamilton. Sehwag pounded an unbeaten 125 from just 74 balls to help India pile on 201 without loss in less than 24 overs when a fifth rain delay forced an early end to the match. New Zealand had made 270 for five from their 47 overs but India, who were 84 runs ahead of the par score when the match was abandoned, were awarded a 10-wicket victory under the Duckworth-Lewis method. The win gave India an unbeatable 3-0 lead and their first one-day series victory on New Zealand soil in 33 years, with Saturday's final game at Auckland still to be played.
