If the Hurling All-Stars were picked today...

Division 1 Group A and B table-toppers Limerick and Clare had been waiting in the semi-finals for two of Galway, Kilkenny, Waterford, and Wexford. All six counties are included in our pick of the best hurlers in 2020 as well as Cork. But for their rotation policy, Limerick, who have yet to drop points, would likely have had more representatives.
