Mark Coleman has been named to start in the Cork half-back line to face Waterford in Sunday's Munster SHC Round 1 clash.

The 26-year-old suffered a broken jaw and teeth damage during a training camp in Kerry at the start of last month. However, he began a recent challenge game against Galway and was in the selection frame for the trip to Walsh Park.
