In a recent conversation with Sports Tak, Yuvraj Singh, who guided Shubman Gill in his career, tried to explain some possible reasons for which he was excluded from the team, right before the showcase tournament.
Shubman Gill was among the few cricketers who played relentlessly across all three formats. He is the captain of the ODI and Test team as well. Yuvraj said that it is very tough for anyone to maintain the same performance in all three formats. He talked about Virat Kohli, the former India captain who played equally well for India in all three formats.

Yuvraj further stated that Gill's last-minute performance might have affected his selection for the T20 World Cup. Singh explained that a team is allowed to select a squad of 15 players, including two keeper-batters. Before the selection, Gill's performance against Australia might not have been up to the mark for the selectors.
Performance vs Australia might have harmed Gill's T20I chances
"So, if you go back, I think Shubman was betting on 37 or 20 balls in Australia. That a person is making runs in Australia. So, the performances of the T20 team, you ought to assess them like that. That you have to run in 3 matches, 4 matches, 5 matches. Because you know that you have to come and win the 6th or 7th match," he added.
