The Tipperary team to play Kilkenny in Sunday's All-Ireland SHC final has been named and is unchanged from the side which defeated Waterford three weeks ago.

John O'Brien retains his place after an impressive display in the semi-final while Noel McGrath is again named at corner forward.

Twelve of the side which played in last year's decider against Kilkenny will start on Sunday, with Michael Cahill, Gearóid Ryan and Patrick Maher the new faces this year. James Woodlock, Pat Kerwick and Seamus Callinan are the players who started the 2009 final but have made way this season.
