Australia on Wednesday (February 26) announced the squad for three ODIs against New Zealand, slated to be played from March 13-20.
Speedster Jhye Richardson, who has been added to Australia's ODI squad for the away series versus South Africa, did not make the cut for the home series against the Kiwis.

Australia has confirmed that the original 14-player ODI squad for the South Africa tour, not including Richardson, will be retained to take on New Zealand.
The 23-year-old Richardson is part of the Aussie squad which is currently playing a T20I series against South Africa. He didn’t feature in the playing XI for first two T20Is and with the series is currently tied 1-1, it will be interesting to see if Richardson gets to play the decider in Cape Town on February 26.
"Jhye is performing exceptionally well," Australian selector Trevor Hohns said. “He has slotted back into the T20 squad in South Africa and is pushing for a place in that side.
Australia squad for New Zealand ODIs:
Aaron Finch (captain), Ashton Agar, Alex Carey, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Marsh, Kane Richardson, D'Arcy Short, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Adam Zampa.
