Australia vs New Zealand: Broken finger casts doubt over John Hastings's availability for ODI series
Australia would play the first ODI against the Black Caps at the SCG on December 4, followed by ODIs at the Manuka Oval and the MCG on December 6 and 9 respectively.
A masterclass from South African opener Quinton de Kock floored Australia in the first game of the five-match one-day international series at Centurion on Friday.
Australia rode on Finch`s 19-ball 55 and an unbeaten 90 from Bailey to chase down 213 in 31 overs and take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series.
The 33-year-old also featured in the T20I series against India in January earlier this year but was not selected for the ICC World World T20.
Hastings hurt himself during the warm-ups before KKR's match against Mumbai Indians last week.
Hastings says the confidence in the Indian team comes from the skipper.
Hastings picked up 14 wickets in 4 ODIs and 1 T20I against India.
13 Australia players were bought at the auctions to highlight why they are at the top of their game.
Australia, propped up by 98 from David Warner, held their nerve by four wickets in the second ODI in Wellington on Saturday to send the series to a decider.
Indian batsmen showed more intensity in their chase to register first victory in the series.
India lost their last nine wickets for just 46 runs.
India managed to finish at 308/8 and Aussies chased the target down with one over to spare.
Gayle made four off 11 and his wicket was instrumental in Stars' victory. They chased down the 161-run target with Luke Wright hitting a magnificent 63-ball 109* knock in the seven wicket win.
