Ireland will play two T20I against India in June after the Men in Blue ends their series against England. India will play a one-off Test, three T20Is and three ODIs between June 1 to 17. The two T20Is against Ireland will be played on June 26 and 28.

With this being the year of the T20 World Cup, many Indian young players will get their opportunity to stake a claim for their inclusion in India’s World Cup squad. The BCCI has already announced the T20I squad for the series against South Africa at home. Many of those players can be named in the squad that will be announced for the Ireland series. In this article, we take a look at five young Indian players who can be added to India’s squad for Ireland series.

Gill is fresh off an IPL title-winning season with Gujarat Titans. He scored 483 runs for the Titans in 16 games. He was consistent throughout the season for the Titans as he notched up another 450-plus run season in the IPL. With the selectors looking to pick the best players, Gill can be given an opportunity at the top of the order in the series.

Shaw is another good potential who can be named in the Indian squad for the Ireland series. Shaw too has been scoring consistently in the IPL. He got his chance of playing T20I cricket for India in the series against Sri Lanka last year. With just two matches in the series, young players like Gill, Shaw and others can be tested while the seniors can be rested.

He might make it tough to make it to the Indian squad, but Mukesh Choudhary is another good option who can be added to the India squad for the Ireland series. The CSK pacer ended IPL 2022 season with 16 wickets with 11 of them inside the powerplay. The management should try looking at him as an option.

Arshdeep Singh will be playing for India in the series against South Africa. He is all set to make his debut in the series. The pacer might even play all five games in the series. He should be added to the squad that will be announced for the Ireland series as well just to give him more confidence and experience.

Umran ends this top 5 list of players. He has been named in the Indian squad announced for the South Africa T20I series. Ideally, he should be added to the Ireland squad as well. Several cricket experts primed Malik to be added to the Indian Test squad that was announced for the one-off Test series against England. His gifted pace has become a subject of the serious topic within the cricketing fraternity.
