SPL round-up: Kenny Miller netted a double to send Rangers to the top of the Scottish Premier League as they came from behind to defeat Kilmarnock 3-1.
It was the striker’s second brace in three days after scoring twice against Forfar in the Homecoming Scottish Cup and allowed the Ibrox side to move a point ahead of Celtic prior to their visit to Motherwell on Sunday.
Rangers were left reeling when Killie took a shock lead through Jamie Hammill but Kris Boyd restored parity before Miller hit the target twice — with all three goals in a blistering six-minute spell.
Andy Dorman rescued a point for St Mirren against Hearts with an injury-time equaliser at Tynecastle.
Hearts had taken the lead through Icelandic international Eggert Jonsson in the 77th minute but the Saints, playing their second game in two days, earned a 1-1 draw at the death.
The unmarked Dorman poked the ball past Janos Balogh at the back post from Jack Ross’s free-kick.
Inverness gave their survival bid another shot in the arm as they won 2-0 at home to Hibernian.
Goals from David Proctor and Richie Foran saw the Highlanders cut the gap to second-bottom Falkirk to a single point.
It was only the second home league win of the season for an Inverness side rejuvenated by Terry Butcher, who has not lost any of his first four games in charge.
