The date/time of the save files are not updated when overwritten. they always keep the creation date/time.
If the game crash, it's not a save problem, but more a game problem. When playing, the savegame "file" is not accessed at all. It's backed up to SD only when exiting. And if the file is corrupted, it wouldn't work on the flashcart at all when restored to the flashcart, as it's encrypted/signed, and a modification would prevent the file to be decrypted, so your save file is correct. So if it's really corrupted, it's inside the save data itself, not the file, and restoring the file will restore corrupted data.
In my opinion, it's more a problem with the SD card containing the ROM.
Try to rewrite the ROM to your MicroSD Card, or use a different MicroSD card.
