Delhi scored 256 for eight in 50 overs after being put in to bat, on a typical low and slow Feroze Shah Kotla wicket, with skipper Gautam Gambhir scoring 58 and adding 99 runs in an opening stand with Unmukt Chand (42).
While Sehwag, who came in at No 3, scored only 15, Puneet Bisht (39) and Sumit Narwal (22) threw their bats around as the last couple of overs produced around 40 runs.
In reply, Jammu and Kashmir had a rollicking start, with Adil Rishi (36) and Shubham Khajuria (46) adding 72 runs in 11 overs for the second wicket. However, their inexperience showed as they were all out for 218 in 45.4 overs.
Once Rasool (30) was dismissed, J&K did not have much of a chance.
Opting to field on a slowish track, Jammu and Kashmir, led by their skipper Parveez Rasool (2-52) and left-arm spinner Waseem Raza (3-58) did well in the middle-overs when stroke-making was extremely difficult.
Skipper Gambhir, however, displayed good touch as he hit seven crisp boundaries in his 79-ball innings.
Playing on a substandard track, not conducive for good stroke-play, the left-hander waited for the loose deliveries and completed his 50 with a late cut off Rasool.
He, however, removed both openers.
While Unmukt was bowled trying to whip the offie across the line, Gambhir got a faster delivery and was rapped on the pads, trying to play the cut shot with very little room for it.
Sehwag played an exquisite square cut, but when tall left-arm slow bowler Raza fired one in the blockhole, he tried to dig it out. The bowler timed his spot jump nicely to take a neat return catch.
In another match of the North Zone leg, Haryana beat Punjab by seven runs in a 32-overs-a-side affair.
Batting first, Haryana scored 153 for eight and then restricted Punjab to 146 for eight.
The third match of the zone saw hosts Services beat Himachal Pradesh by 11 runs.
