Vice-captain rested from Chappell-Hadlee to prepare for India Test series as Aaron Finch and Shaun Marsh recalled for three-match NZ tour
Aaron Finch has been recalled to Australia's one-day international squad, with vice-captain David Warner rested from the Qantas Tour of New Zealand.
Australia's Test players in the ODI squad will depart for the India tour direct from New Zealand, and selectors have moved to give Warner a break from white-ball cricket beforehand.
Usman Khawaja has also been prioritised for Test cricket, and will head to Dubai early, with Shaun Marsh recalled to the one-day side.
Interim National Selector Trevor Hohns said Warner would link up with his Test playing colleagues at the team's Dubai training camp.
"David has had a very big summer and will benefit from a break in cricket, both mentally and physically," Hohns said.
"He will travel to Dubai in the second group of departures to coincide with those players arriving from the one-day series in New Zealand.
"This gives Aaron an opportunity to return to the side. His form in the Big Bash League has been very good and he has earnt his recall."
Australia ODI squad: Steve Smith (c), Pat Cummins, James Faulkner, Aaron Finch, Peter Handscomb, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Shaun Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Billy Stanlake, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade, Adam Zampa

Bit of arrogance here for mine, its ODIs not 5 day games.
