Limerick and Tipperary have revealed their starting line-ups for Thursday evening's Munster U21 hurling championship semi-final at Semple Stadium.

Treaty County boss Pat Donnelly has made four changes in all from the team which defeated Clare in the opening round back in early May.

One of those changes sees Peter Casey named at right corner-forward in what will be the Na Piarsaigh man's first return to action after an injury lay-off stemming back to his club's All-Ireland final replay defeat to Cuala on March 23rd.
