Wellington, Oct 14 (IBNS): Six players from New Zealand A have been added to the New Zealand ODI squad for their upcoming series against India, with Glenn Phillips and Todd Astle in line to make their debut.

Todd Astle, Matt Henry, Henry Nicholls, Colin Munro, Glenn Phillips and George Worker will join the squad following the conclusion of the NZ A tour against India A.

Ish Sodhi and Tom Bruce will travel with the squad for the ODIs, having been named in the Twenty20 squad. Ross Taylor and Worker will return to New Zealand following the conclusion of the ODIs.

Selector and NZ A Manager Gavin Larsen was quoted as saying by cricket board's website: "Todd has been one of the best white-ball players in domestic cricket the last few seasons and he’s backed that up with a strong showing for New Zealand A. Todd brings all round skill to the squad, quality leg spin, is athletic in the field as well as being able to contribute with the bat."
