The squad reprises key players Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Varun Chakravarthy, who return after nearly four years and a side strain injury respectively.
Ravi Bishnoi remains sidelined for this series. The five-match series will continue at Hagley Oval, Sky Stadium, Eden Park, Seddon Park, and Hamilton over the course of the month.
