National Selector Rod Marsh said the squad has struck a near-perfect balance between emerging talent and experienced players.
The squad will be captained by the my FootDR Queensland Bulls captain, Chris Lynn, with Australia A four-day squad captain Peter Handscomb his deputy.
"Chris has shown in his time with Queensland and the Brisbane Heat that he can lead a team whilst also putting in high-quality performances with the bat and in the field," Marsh said.
South Australia's Alex Ross and Kane Richardson along with Tasmania's Cameron Boyce also join the squad with Queensland's Mitchell Swepson and Matthew Renshaw to join Cricket Australia's National Performance Squad for the series.
Victoria's Glenn Maxwell remains in place of spin bowler Jon Holland, who was recently called up to the Qantas Tour of Sri Lanka as a replacement for Steve O'Keefe.
"Although we have also selected a squad with an eye towards the future, we have also rewarded the most recent domestic cricket performers and this is a perfect opportunity to showcase their talents against international opposition," said Marsh.
The one-day component of the quadrangular A series will be played in Townsville and Mackay and is a key element of Cricket Australia's commitment to take cricket to all parts of Australia.
Besides India A and Australia A, other two teams are South Africa A and the National Performance Squad.
Squad: Chris Lynn (c), Peter Handscomb (vc), Cameron Bancroft, Scott Boland, Cameron Boyce, Jake Lehmann, Glenn Maxwell, Joe Mennie, Kurtis Patterson, Kane Richardson, Alex Ross, Marcus Stoinis, Chris Tremain, Sam Whiteman, Dan Worrall.
Coach: Troy Cooley; Assistant Coach: David Hussey.
