The Tullamore man played in Ireland's defeat to Italy last Friday.
Ireland head coach Neil Doak has made four changes to his team for tomorrow's game against New Zealand at the under-20 World Rugby Championship.
After scoring a try against Italy, Oisin Minogue is rewarded with a start in the back-row, while Conor Kennelly comes in at lock.
Jonny Scott has been brought into the centre, with Daniel Green handed a start at full-back.
Tullamore's Paidi Farrell has been left out of the match day squad.
Farrell played the full 80 minutes in their 18-16 defeat to Italy last Friday.
To reach the semi-finals, Ireland will need to earn a bonus-point victory over the Junior All-Blacks, or win and restrict their opponents to just a losing bonus-point.
