Brothers Patrick and Michael Collins have been included in the Cork team to face Kilkenny in Sunday's All-Ireland IHC final at the new Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

Patrick, who is the only member of the U21 panel involved, is named in goal with Michael at midfield. Full back and captain Shane O'Donovan will be hoping to pick up his second All-Ireland trophy this year, having skippered Mayfield to All-Ireland club JHC success last February.

It's somewhat farcical that the Rebels have qualified for the final without pucking a ball, while Kilkenny have played just one game against Wexford in the Leinster final. 

Cork (IH v Kilkenny): P Collins; B O'Sullivan, S O'Donovan, S Hegarty; K Morrison, D O'Donovan, K Kavanagh; D O'Flynn, M Collins; D Casey, N Kelly, J O'Neill; S Hayes, W Leahy, D Drake. Subs: A Long, A Dennehy, T Lawrence, C O'Brien, L O'Neill, J Cooper, R O'Shea, N McNamara and M Kennefick.
