Why Shubman Gill is not selected in Indian Team against Ireland?

Shubman Gill is not included in the T20 Squad against Ireland because he has already been a part of Indian Test Team which is set to play the final Test match of the five-match Test series against England at the Edgbaston, Birmingham starting from July 1. BCCI have confirmed that Gill alongside Rohit Sharma will be opening the batting for the side. Earlier it was KL Rahul who was set to open the innings but he was ruled out of the series after suffering an injury. In his absence, Gill is most likely to get a chance because Mayank Agarwal is also not available.
