A struggling New Zealand on Monday recalled all-rounder Jimmy Neesham and leg-spinner Todd Astle for the remaining two ODIs against India, who have taken an unassailable 3-0 lead in the series.
Neesham replaced Doug Bracewell in the team while leg-spinner Ish Sodhi made way for Astle.
Astle has recovered the from the knee injury that ruled him out of the series against Pakistan in November, a statement from New Zealand Cricket said.
Neesham was part of the squad that faced Sri Lanka at home recently before he suffered a hamstring strain.
New Zealand's batting has let them down in the series so far but they have decided to retain their under-performing openers Martin Guptill and Colin Munro.
"It's great to welcome back the all-round skills of Jimmy and Todd and we're looking forward to seeing what they can bring to the series," selector and former player Gavin Larsen said.
New Zealand squad: Kane Williamson (capt), Todd Astle, Trent Boult, Colin De Grandhomme, Lockie Ferguson, Martin Guptill, Matt Henry, Tom Latham, Colin Munro, Jimmy Neesham, Henry Nicholls, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ross Taylor.
