In the other match at Asian games cricket competition, Japan defeated Cambodia. Both the teams were fielding squads mostly comprised of immigrants. There were only two locals in the Cambodia squad (Te Senglong and Phon Bunthean), while the Japan team only had 4 locals (Wataru Miyauchi, Tsuyoshi Takada, Makoto Taniyama and Kohei Kubota). Batting first, Cambodia made 125/7 in 20 overs, with Japanese bowler Ryan Drake taking 3 wickets. Japan chased down the target with 3 wickets and 1.5 overs to spare, with Kendel Fleming top-scoring for them with 35.
Really good performance from the Japanese top order batsmen. They did very well to make sure that they did the bulk of the scoring and the players that came after them had an easier job. It did get a little interesting towards the end. especially when Japan started losing a lot of wickets very quickly. But in the end they were able to reach the target with a lot of balls left in hand.
To be honest, the target from Cambodia was not good enough. Even after Japan, conceded 16 extra runs they were able to score, only 125. It was just a matter of patience for Japan in the end.
