New Zealand will open their T20 World Cup campaign against Australia at SCG on October 22.
Finn Allen and Michael Bracewell have been named for their first senior World Cups and are the only new faces from the side that made the final of last year's event in the UAE.
Fast bowler Adam Milne has retained his place in the squad, after the 30-year-old was called in to replace Lockie Ferguson (calf injury) early in the tournament last October. Devon Conway has been named as the front-line wicket-keeper after wearing the gloves in the UAE and the recent series against West Indies.
"Of those who featured in last year's World Cup squad, Kyle Jamieson wasn't considered as he continues his rehabilitation from a back injury, while Todd Astle and Tim Seifert have missed selection," stated an official NZC release.
Senior opener Martin Guptill's inclusion has ensured that he will feature in his seventh T20 World Cup.
The BlackCaps T20 World Cup squad will first contest the T20I tri-series with Pakistan and Bangladesh, starting October 7 in Christchurch. With seven matches across eight days at Hagley Oval, the tri-series will provide fans their last chance to see the team before they depart for Australia on October 15.
"It's always a special time announcing a World Cup squad and I'd like to congratulate the 15 players selected today. It's especially exciting for Finn and Michael who are set for their first ICC events, while Martin Guptill is preparing for his 7th T20 World Cup - which in itself is an incredible achievement," said head coach Gary Stead.
"It's great to have this tournament so soon after last year's event in which we played some really good cricket, but couldn't quite get over the line at the end. With the nucleus of that squad retained along with the exciting additions of Finn and Michael, we should go into the tournament with plenty of optimism," he added.
New Zealand will begin their T20 World Cup 2022 campaign against Australia at SCG on October 22.
