Japan started strongly and looked set to mount a monster score. However, two quick wickets from Rens de Wit pushed them back. They were able to jump to 200 thanks to some late order hitting, supported by a steady fifty from Taicharo Shusake. On a bowling-friendly pitch, Japan will like their chances of defending the total.
