Jimmy Barry-Murphy says Mark Ellis and Alan Cadogan should be available for Cork's national hurling league semi-final against Dublin.

The pair both sustained hamstring injuries during the Rebels' defeat to Tipperary at Pairc Ui Rinn and subsequently sat out the quarter-final victory over Wexford at the same venue. But the Leesiders expect to have them back for the Nowlan Park double-header on April 19th:

"Mark and Alan have been working hard to get back into contention," Barry-Murphy told The Irish Examiner after yesterday's three-point win over Laois in Ballacolla, where Paudie O'Sullivan top-scored with 1-7.

"The two lads will be back certainly, but we will assess them more during the week, but I am happy that they will be available."
