Wicketkeeper Tim Ambrose was the only uncapped one-day international player named in England's 14-man squad on Friday for a five-match series and a Twenty20 international against New Zealand.

Ambrose, who has played in England's last five tests since displacing Matt Prior, has been selected even though he has struggled for runs during the three-test series against the Kiwis while Prior is the highest scorer in this season's county championship.

All-rounder Andrew Flintoff was not chosen because he has yet to complete a six-week rehabilitation programme after suffering a side strain.

England squad: Paul Collingwood (captain) Tim Ambrose, James Anderson, Ian Bell, Ravi Bopara, Stuart Broad, Alastair Cook, Dimitri Mascarenhas, Kevin Pietersen, Owais Shah, Ryan Sidebottom, Graeme Swann, Chris Tremlett, Luke Wright.
