BARRY Nash has emerged as a doubtful starter with Limerick for Sunday’s All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship semi-final with Cork at Croke Park.

It’s understood that the two-time All-Star pulled up with a hamstring issue at a recent training session and is unlikely to feature.

In the enforced absence of the 27-year-old from South Liberties, a returning Seán Finn (Bruff) would appear the most obvious replacement in the full-back line.

Finn himself suffered a knock in the loss to Cork in the round-robin stages of the Munster Championship.

Manager John Kiely is due to announce his starting selection on Friday morning.

The massive fixture is likely to be a near 80-000 sell-out.
