McCrabbe hopeful of playing against Kilkenny

Dublin hurler Alan McCrabbe says he is hoping to play some part in the Leinster final against Kilkenny on Sunday week.

The game will be the Dubs' first provincial hurling final in 18 years, but doubts have surrounded the participation of the Craobh Chiaráin hitman due to a knee injury.

McCrabbe says his changes of playing are currently 50-50 and he won't know for sure if he can make the game until next week.
