BEN O'Connor has named an experimental Cork team for their Co Op Superstores Munster Senior Hurling League clash against Limerick in the TUS Gaelic Grounds this evening (7.35pm).

The panel only has 21 players too due to most of the Cork panel being involved in the Fitzgibbon Cup, which commences this week.

There is five changes from the team that played in the Canon O'Brien Cup against UCC just after Christmas as Ger Millerick, Tom Hanley, James Kearney, Colin O'Brien and Robbie O'Flynn come in for Daire O'Leary, Cormac O'Brien, Micheal Mullins, Brian O'Sullivan and Alan Walsh.
