Tom Morrissey will captain Limerick in place of Declan Hannon for Sunday's Allianz Hurling League Division 1 semi-final versus Dublin at Nowlan Park (throw-in 1.30pm).

With the Treaty County's Liam MacCarthy Cup winning skipper Hannon on the bench, Morrissey has been given the honour of captaining the side in Kilkenny.

Regular full-forward Seamus Flanagan will also have to make do with a place on the bench which is notable for the return of Na Piarsaigh defender Mike Casey following injury.
