Tipperary manager Michael Ryan will hand debuts to four players in Sunday's Munster SHC clash against Cork at Semple Stadium.

Seamus Kennedy (right half-back), Sean Curran (right half-forward), Dan McCormack (centre-forward) and John McGrath (left corner-forward) will all make their championship bows in Thurles.

There were concerns that McGrath, team-captain Brendan Maher and Cathal Barrett would miss the quarter-final with injuries but the trio get the nod.

Ryan has a fully fit squad to choose from apart from defender Barry Heffernan who misses out due to repeated concussion.

Tipperary (SHC v Cork): Darren Gleeson; Cathal Barrett, James Barry, Michael Cahill; Seamus Kennedy, Ronan Maher, Padraic Maher; Brendan Maher, Michael Breen; Sean Curran, Dan McCormack, Noel McGrath; John O'Dwyer, Seamus Callanan, John McGrath.
