We lost the one game that we did play so we are a little behind the eight ball now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut chatting to Dane Vilas he said that the Stars last year won one out of five and went on to win the competition so we are definitely not out of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe just need to get some games in and get on a par with the other teams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite another game where points were shared, Miller believes that the side are still in a good place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s great to be a part of this competition and it has a different sort of feel to it. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are some great players here but it\u2019s never easy when you aren\u2019t playing cricket,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The Heat now travel to Port Elizabeth to take on the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants at St George\u2019s Park.<\/p>\n<p>More information can be found at www.durbanheat.co.za. <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.safarinow.com\/destinations\/durban\/?source=8201\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Durban<\/a> Heat Squad:<br \/> Andile Phehlukwayo, Alex Hales, David Miller (retained player), Dane Vilas, Ravi Bopara, Keshav Maharaj (retained player), Kyle Abbott (retained player), Khaya Zondo (retained player), Marco Jansen, Daryn Dupavillon, Sarel Erwee (retained player), Malusi Siboto, Prenelan Subrayen, Wihan Lubbe, Shaun von Berg, Wesley Marshall.<\/p>\n<p>DURBAN HEAT FIXTURES<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, November 23: 12h30, Nelson Mandela Bay Giants v Durban Heat, St. George\u2019s Park<br \/> Thursday, November 28: 17h30, Cape Town Blitz v Durban Heat, Newlands<br \/> Saturday, November 30: 12h30, Durban Heat v Nelson Mandela Bay Giants, Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium<br \/> Wednesday, December 4: 17h30, Paarl Rocks v Durban Heat, Eurolux Boland Park<br \/> Saturday, December 7: 12h30, Jozi Stars v Durban Heat, Imperial Wanderers Stadium<br \/> Tuesday, December 10: 17h30, Durban Heat v Jozi Stars, Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium<\/p>\n<p>Friday, December 13: 17h30, Play-off, 2nd v 3rd<br \/> (reserve day if required on Saturday, December 14, 12h30)<br \/> Monday, December 16: 17h30, Final<br \/> (reserve day if required on Tuesday, December 17, 17h30)<\/p>\n<p>The post <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/dolphinscricket.co.za\/heat-and-spartans-share-points\/\">Heat and Spartans share points<\/a> appeared first on <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/dolphinscricket.co.za\">Hollywoodbets Dolphins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fill in the form below to have your blog featured on MyDurban \u2013 we will post a snippet and title link to your new blog posts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Submit and get free press releases here:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/submit\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MyPR Free Press Release<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/mydurban.co.za\/meet-some-of-our-durban-bloggers\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meet the Durban Bloggers<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heat and Spartans share points: Durban \u2013 Another rain and weather influenced Mzansi Super League game involving the Durban Heat ended with shared points against the Tshwane Spartans at SuperSport Park Centurion on Thursday.
