India registered a dramatic two-run triumph over Japan in a rain-affected historic T20 encounter in Sano on Tuesday, where a disciplined spell by Japanese spinners kept India to 32 for 4 in the five-over contest, but Indian bowlers defended the low total by limiting the hosts to 30 for 3 with Washington Sundar claiming two wickets, although earlier, Indian batsmen had a tough time dealing with the turn and extra bounce at the venue with skipper Shreyas Iyer leading the score with 16 off 12 balls with one four and Sanju Samson making 9 off 7 balls, while Charlie Hara-Hinze bowled a strong spell of 2-0-17-2 for Japan to send back Abhishek Sharma and Shreyas Iyer.
