Australians 127 for 1 (Burns 64*, Marsh 47) trail Sri Lankan XI 229 (Gunaratne 58, Siriwardena 53, de Silva 49, OKeefe 5-43) by 102 runsScorecardSteve OKeefe, the left-arm spinner, used the bounce available on the P Sara Oval surface to make a potent start to his first Test tour of Sri Lanka. He claimed wickets in batches to finish with 5 for 43 as Sri Lankan XI were bowled out for 229 on the the opening day of their three-day fixture. Meanwhile, Nathan Lyon, the offspinner, went for 72 in 13 wicketless overs.But it is unlikely that Australia will depose senior spinner Lyon given his good returns through the recent home summer. OKeefes success, though, may breed confidence in a potential dual-spin attack as the team is likely to encounter pitches that are significantly drier than this surface. Mitchell Starc and Jackson Bird took two wickets each, and Mitchell Marsh one, before Joe Burns struck an unbeaten half-century in the evening session. The visitors ended the day on 127 for the loss of Shaun Marsh for 47.For the Sri Lankan XI, Milinda Siriwardana composed a measured half-century to boost his chances of being in the Test squad, although a century may have all but sealed his berth. He shared the innings biggest stand of 101, for the fourth wicket, with Asela Gunaratne, who struck 58.Chaturanga de Silva was Lyons major tormentor in the second session, as he clubbed 10 fours on his way to a 59-ball 49. Dasun Shanaka - de Silvas partner in a rapid seventh-wicket partnership worth 75 - fell to Steve Smiths second exceptional slip catch of the day; Smith climbed high and fast to his right to end Shanakas innings at 39. The Sri Lankans attempted to attack both spinners through much of the day, but OKeefe proved difficult to hit away.They came out pretty aggressively, but I guess when guys do that youve got a chance to get wickets, OKeefe said after play. It gives you confidence to come out the back end of that well. You expect it on a day one wicket that has a bit of grass and not much turn.Smith had starred in OKeefes first dismissal as well, moving towards the leg side in anticipation of Gunaratnes fine paddle to complete a sharp take. OKeefe had Shehan Jayasuriya caught at short midwicket in the same over and later, dismissed Shanaka, de Silva and Dilhara Fernando in quick succession, to close out the innings.The Australians seamers largely attacked the stumps, but also troubled the batsmen in short outside off-stump bursts by using the pace and seam movement on offer. Bird and Marsh had their victims caught behind the wicket, while Starc had a top-order batsman lbw, and later snuck a full delivery through the defences of a tailender.Arriving at the crease after tea, the Australian openers made quick gains against the new ball, finding the offside boundaries regularly as Nisala Tharaka - who is returning from injury - proved wayward. Left-armer Vimukthi Perera, and Dilhara Fernando were more disciplined, but neither came close to making an early breakthrough.Jayasuriya was the best of the Sri Lankan spinners, bowling Marsh for 47 after the openers had made 97 together. Burns half century featured five boundaries and a straight six off Siriwardanas bowling. The visitors were 102 runs behind, with nine wickets in hand, by stumps.

The Miami Marlins have added to their bullpen again, agreeing to a two-year, $16 million deal with right-hander Brad Ziegler, a source told ESPNs Jim Bowden, confirming a story first reported by Fox Sports.?The moves come on the same day the Marlins officially signed another ex-Boston Red Sox reliever, Junichi Tazawa.?The Red Sox acquired Ziegler in a July 9 trade that sent Single-A pitcher Jose Almonte and Single-A infielder Luis Alejandro Basabe to the Arizona Diamondbacks. In 33 appearances for Boston, Ziegler posted a 1.52 ERA, 31 strikeouts, 11 walks and a career-best 9.4 strikeouts per nine innings.Ziegler, 37, is particularly effective against right-handed hitters because of his dropped-down submarine-style delivery. In 2016, he held righties to a .630 OPS compared to .723 against lefties, which was more or less in line with his career totals (.559 OPS vs. righties, .757 OPS vs. lefties).Ziegler made $5.5 million in 2016, the option year of an original two-year, $10.5 million contract that he signed with Arizona in 2014.Tazawa finalized his $12 million, two-year contract with the Marlins on Friday after passing a physical. The deal came wiith an endorsement from Ichiro Suzuki, the Marlins outfielder and 3,000-hit club member.ddddddddddddWhat was Suzukis scouting report on his fellow native of Japan?That hes a very good pitcher and can help us, president of baseball operations Michael Hill said. He signed off, and that was good to know.Miami swung the deals for the right-handers after falling short in its pursuit of high-priced closers Aroldis Chapman and Kenley Jansen.We know theres competition for players, Hill said. You have a Plan A, but you have a Plan B, C and D to accomplish your goal.A.J. Ramos remains the closer, at least for now, and Tazawa and Ziegler should help compensate for the loss of left-hander Mike Dunn to Colorado in free agency.The Marlins also have acquired starting pitchers Edinson Volquez and Jeff Locke to help compensate for the loss of ace Jose Fernandez, who died in a boat crash in September. They added A.J. Ellis as their backup catcher. ?ESPN Red Sox reporter Scott Lauber and The Associated Press contributed to this report. ' ' '
