Jason Gillane has been named between the posts for Limerick in tomorrow evening's highly-anticipated Allianz Hurling League Division 1 showdown with Cork at SuperValu Páirc Ui Chaoimh.

The Patrickswell man gets the nod ahead of the returning Shane Dowling in the absence of Nickie Quaid, who is ruled out for the season. Gillane is one of eight changes from that side that lost to Cork in last year's epic All-Ireland SHC semi-final.

Kyle Hayes starts at centre back, while William O'Donoghue and Adam English partner up in midfield.

New captain Cian Lynch is joined in attack by Gearoid Hegarty, Aidan O'Connor, Shane O'Brien, Patrick O'Donovan and Donnacha Ó Dálaigh. There is plenty of experience on the subs bench with Aaron Gillane, Seamus Flanagan, David Reidy and Dowling among those listed.

Limerick (SH v Cork): Jason Gillane (Patrickswell); Sean Finn (Bruff), Dan Morrissey (Ahane), Barry Murphy (Doon); Diarmaid Byrnes (Patrickswell), Kyle Hayes (Kildimo-Pallaskenry), Colin Coughlan (Ballybrown); Adam English (Doon), William O'Donoghue (Na Piarsaigh); Gearoid Hegarty (St Patricks), Cian Lynch (Patrickswell), Aidan O'Connor (Ballybrown); Donnacha Ó Dálaigh (Monaleen), Shane O'Brien (Kilmallock), Patrick O'Donovan (Effin). 

Subs: Shane Dowling (Na Piarsaigh), Seamus Flanagan (Feohanagh-Castlemahon), Aaron Gillane (Patrickswell), Vince Harrington (Na Piarsaigh), Micheal Houlihan (Kilmallock), Ethan Hurley (Newcastle West), Darragh Langan (Monaleen), Fergal O'Connor (Effin), David Reidy (Dromin-Athlacca), Cian Scully (Dromin-Athlacca), Eddie Stokes (Doon).
