Strike bowler Shane Bond, who is recovering from a back injury, will miss the New Zealand tour of India in September, New Zealand Cricket announced on Tuesday.
Middle order batsman Craig McMillan has been recalled to the team.
"Craig is very keen to re-establish himself in the team as a senior player and to contribute again," selection manager Sir Richard Hadlee said.
"His experience will be vital in India."

Also returning to the team after an injury-enforced absence is batsman Nathan Astle. Bowler Michael Mason will take Bond's place in the Test team.
