AUCKLAND: The mighty Indian batting came crumbling down like a pile of bricks as New Zealand skittled out the visitors for meagre 149 runs in 36.3 overs in the fifth and final ODI today.

Opting to bat after rain had delayed the start by 90 minutes, India crashed for their lowest total in the series with only Virender Sehwag (40) and Rohit Sharma (43 not out) getting some runs under their belt.
