Kane Richardson is a late scratching from Saturday's ODI in Wellington, where Australia will field first as they seek to level the three-match series against New Zealand.
Steve Smith lost the toss, revealing three changes to the XI that was belted by 159 runs in Auckland.
In-form batsman Usman Khawaja, debutant legspinner Adam Zampa and paceman Scott Boland are in for Shaun Marsh, James Faulkner and Richardson.
Richardson was named in the original side but has a sore back and will undergo scans soon.
"I was going to have a bat if I won the toss," Smith said.
Brendon McCullum announced an unchanged team and had no reservations about batting first.
"It just looks like a great wicket," McCullum said.
"We know Australia are going to be a lot stronger today."
The ODI series finale is in Hamilton on Monday, while the two-Test series starts in Wellington on Friday.
Australia XI: Usman Khawaja, David Warner, Steve Smith (capt), George Bailey, Glenn Maxwell, Mitch Marsh, Matthew Wade, John Hastings, Scott Boland, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood
New Zealand XI: Martin Guptill, Brendon McCullum (capt), Kane Williamson, Henry Nicholls, Grant Elliott, Corey Anderson, Luke Ronchi, Mitchell Santner, Adam Milne, Matt Henry, Trent Boult.
