Cork hurling manager Kieran Kingston has handed championship debuts to Patrick Collins, Ger Millerick, and Conor Cahalane for Saturday evening’s Munster semi-final against Limerick.

Goalkeeper Collins and half-forward Conor Cahalane were first-team regulars throughout the League and so their inclusion comes as no surprise, whereas the selection at midfield of Fr O’Neill’s clubman Ger Millerick can be filed under the heading: unexpected.
