It’s a huge weekend of hurling action with Clare v Limerick in the Munster final and Leinster’s decider between Galway and Kilkenny.

Kelly scored 0-4 from play in April’s round-robin clash seven in the Munster final of 2022, five in the group game before it, having hit 0-8 in the 2020 provincial defeat.
