Limerick U20 Hurling Manager Paul Beary has selected his side to face Cork today in the Munster semi-final today in the LIT Gaelic Grounds at 4.30pm.
The game will be live on TG4 from 4.15pm with the winner advancing to the December 23 decider against the winners of Tipperary and Waterford who play on Tuesday.
Check out our preview of the game below.
Beary, has Paul Browne, James Ryan, Paudie O’Brien, Ger Downes and Aaron Murphy as selectors/coaches.
He has chosen four of the players who featured in the quarter-final loss to Cork last summer in the shape of Jason Gillane, Josh Considine, Dylan O’Shea and Jack Ryan who is captain of this year’s side.
Gillane and Considine are two of the four members of John Kiely’s senior side that Beary has chosen with Brian O’Grady named at full back and Mark Quinlan at wing-back.
Four of the starting XV began Limerick’s Munster minor final win over Clare last summer with Jimmy Quilty, Colin Coughlan, Aidan O’Connor and Cathal O’Neill helping that side to the All-Ireland semi-finals where they fell to Kilkenny.
