Kilmacud Crokes pair Cian MacGabhann and Bill O'Carroll have been given the all-clear to face Ballyhale Shamrocks on Sunday.

The Dublin champions will lock horns with the Kilkenny kingpins at Parnell Park for a place in the Leinster senior club hurling championship final and Crokes were sweating over the availability of wing backs MacGabhann and O'Carroll, both of whom sustained injuries during the quarter-final defeat of Laois champs Rathdowney Errill.

Manager Ollie Baker confirmed that he will be selecting from a full squad for Sunday afternoon's crunch encounter:

"The last three weeks, a few lads that were carrying knocks were able to take a bit of time to recover and that has worked out well for them," the Clare man told the Herald. "They responded well to a bit of treatment.

"We're in good shape fitness wise, with regard to injuries. We've no problems. We'll be picking from a full deck."
