Chasing revised target was not easy: Dhoni

Mahendra Singh Dhoni said after India's successful run chase in the 4th ODI that with the victory target being revised after every rain interruption it was far from easy. 

"It was a difficult chase with the rain interruptions. The way Viru and Gautam batted, it looked easy but it was never easy," Dhoni said after India's series-clinching win here. 

"The wind was very strong all through. Overall, we got a good start and capitalised on it later on," Dhoni said. 

Dhoni said the team no longer relied on individuals to do the job as every member "chips in". 

"We are not relying on individuals. For instance, we were without Sachin (Tendulkar) on Wednesday but still performed well. That's the plus point that we are not relying too heavily on individuals," he said. 

Man of the Match Sehwag, gave away 500 dollars out of the 1000 from his prize money to the local Hamilton Star Wars Cricket Club.
