Murphy to take armband for Banner clash in Cronin absence

Patrick Cronin of Bishopstown was appointed captain earlier this year but will not start due a severe chest infection, though he’s hoping to play some part in the game. Murphy is one of Cork’s most experienced players having lined out in the All-Ireland finals of 2004, 2005 and 2006.
