Andrew Balbirnie will lead Ireland for the 10th time in the format. The host, however, will be without Paul Stirling, Barry McCarthy, Josh Little, Gavin Hoey and Jordan Neill, who are all missing out due to injury.
Meanwhile, Jake Egan, Tom Mayes, Liam McCarthy and Reuben Wilson could make their debuts in the longest format.
New Zealand had already named its squad for the match. The Kiwi squad will be led by Tom Latham and includes star batter Kane Williamson.
