Tipperary have made two changes to the team which beat Antrim for their encounter with Kilkenny in the All-Ireland Hurling Semi-Final at Croke Park on Sunday. Eddie Enright will return to the starting line-up and will partner captain Tommy Dunne in midfield.
The only other change comes in the area of full forward as Eugene O'Neill replaces the injured Conor Gleeson. Brian O'Meara and Mark O'Leary will start on the wings but John Carroll is named in his most effective role of centre-forward. David Kennedy was the player to miss out for Enright in the full forward position.
Tipperary team to play Kilkenny:
B Cummins, T Costello, P Maher, P Ormonde, N Morris, E Corcoran, P Kelly, T Dunne, E Enright, M O'Leary, J Carroll, B O'Meara, E Kelly, E O'Neill, B Dunne.
