Jeev shares the second place with Toshinori Muto (66) and the duo are two shots clear of overnight leader and now fourth placed Shigeki Maruyama (70), a past champion here.
Jeev, who has won four times in Japan, including twice at this very event and course, has steadily moved from 10th to seventh to tied second.
Jeev opened the third round with a double bogey, but over the next two holes, he made up with birdies, one of them a chip-in on the third. Birdies on sixth and ninth saw him turn in two-under.
