January 22, 2009 10:25 IST

New Zealand [Images] have named two new faces in their 14-man squad to play Australia [Images] in the Chappell-Hadlee one-day series starting next month.

Uncapped all-rounder Brendon Diamanti and 18-year-old bowler Trent Boult were included after impressive domestic performances. Batsman Peter Fulton and seam bowler Iain O'Brien were recalled.

"We're treating this somewhat like a home series -- we may look to bring players in and out of the squad as required," head of selectors Glenn Turner said in a statement.

The tour includes five one-day matches and a Twenty20 [Images] game against Australia.

Squad: Daniel Vettori [Images] (Captain), Trent Boult, Neil Broom, Brendon Diamanti, Grant Elliott, Peter Fulton, Martin Guptill, Brendon McCullum [Images], Kyle Mills, Iain O'Brien, Jeetan Patel [Images], Jesse Ryder [Images], Tim Southee, Ross Taylor [Images].
