Going into match 4, the hosts lead the series 2-0. The first two T20Is saw Japan registering landslide victories, while the third game ended without a result. The hosts absolutely dismantled the Mongolia batting line-up in the first two games to register crushing wins.
In the opening encounter, the visitors were shot out for just 33 runs while chasing Japan's target of 200 runs to suffer the 166-run defeat. Left-arm spinner Charles Hinze was the wrecker-in-chief, picking up four wickets for just four runs off 16 balls. Sabaorish Ravichandran (54 off 24 balls) and Wataru Miyauchi (72 off 54) scored half-centuries for the home team.
The home team further asserted its dominance in the second T20I, skittling Mongolia for a scarcely believable total of 12 runs. This was the second-lowest total in T20I history, behind Isle of Man's 10 in 8.4 overs against Spain last year.
Japan rode Sabaorish Ravichandran's 39-ball 69 to post a total of 217/7 in 20 overs. Mongolia, in reply, were able to bat for just 8.2 overs. If not for three extras, their total would have become the lowest in the history of T20Is. Furthermore, Japan's 205-run win in the second clash was their largest margin of victory in terms of runs in T20ls, beating a 180-run win against China.
