Afif Hossain and Mosaddek Hossain have kept Bangladesh on course after the host suffered a blow in chasing of 145 runs against Zimbabwe in the rain-reduced 18-over match of the Tri-nation T20 series in Dhaka.

Tendai Chatara was first to strike on Bangladesh dismissing opener Liton Das (19) in the last delivery of the innings' third over at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on Friday (Sept 13).
Kyle Jarvis took Soumya Sarkar, and skipper Shakib Al Hasan while Chatara dismissed Mushfiqur Rahim to bring Bangladesh to 29/4 in the first five overs of the innings.
Earlier, Ryan Burl's quick-fire 57 helped Zimbabwe to post 144 for five.
Zimbabwe, sending to bat first, lost wicket regularly before Burl and Mutombodzi built an 81-run partnership in the sixth wicket.
Burl earned an expensive over from Shakib as the former took 30 runs in the 16th over to build his 32-ball knock with five fours and four sixes.
A floodlight failure at the stadium interrupted the match at the innings' last over.
For Bangladesh's Mosaddek Hossain, Mohammad Saifuddin, Taijul Islam, and Mustafizur Rahman shared four wickets.
