UPDATE: Victoria fast-bowler James Pattinson will join Australia's two-day red-ball camp in Sydney starting on Tuesday ahead of next month's three-Test series against New Zealand.

It brings the number of Australians assembling at Hurstville to 20. A Cricket Australia spokesman confirmed Pattinson was already due to attend but was missing from the earlier announcement.

Pattinson went wicketless in the Commonwealth Bank Bushrangers' 36-run win over Western Australia on Monday, but has 8-106 from three matches at 13.25 to be the state's top wicket-taker in the tournament.

Pattinson played two ODIs on the Qantas Tour of the British Isles and also toured India with Australia A.

FIRST EDITION:

A huge squad of 19 Australian players will assemble in Sydney tomorrow for the first day of a two-day red-ball camp ahead of next month’s three-Test series against New Zealand.

Following the postponement of the Bangladesh tour due to security concerns, Australia’s Test players have been scattered throughout their state sides for the Matador BBQs One-Day Cup this month.

The camp at Hurstville Oval will provide them with some much-needed training against the red ball ahead of the first Test at the Gabba, starting on November 5.

Fast-bowlers Mitchell Johnson, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Coulter-Nile as well as injured opener David Warner will join the 15-man squad picked for the Bangladesh tour for two days of centre-wicket and net practise.

Johnson and Hazlewood had been rested from the Bangladesh tour, while injured vice-captain Warner was unavailable for selection. The uncapped Coulter-Nile picked up a hamstring injury during last month's one-day series against England and made his return to action in today's Matador Cup match in Blacktown.

Warner indicated on Sunday during his Matador Cup commentary for the Nine Network that he was aiming to return to match action in the opening round of the Sheffield Shield later this month having suffered a badly broken left thumb during the ODI tour of England.

Tasmanian duo James Faulkner and Andrew Fekete will only be in attendence for the first day of the camp as they will be available for selection in the Tigers' Matador Cup match against South Australia on Wednesday. There are no Matador Cup matches scheduled for Tuesday.

Selector Mark Waugh forecast last week that the anticipated returns of Warner, Johnson and Hazlewood for the NZ series would squeeze out some players selected for the Bangladesh tour.

"The squad from Bangladesh, it's going to look different for New Zealand. There is no doubt about it," Waugh said.

"Because you didn't have Warner, Hazlewood and Johnson (in the Bangladesh squad), so there's three players straight away you'd imagine would come back into the reckoning for the first Test.

"And with different conditions, you're not going to have two spinners at the Gabba in the first Test.

"There's going to be some guys picked for that tour who are probably going to get shuffled back down the order a little bit, but you can't do anything about it.

"At least their names are there, they got picked for an Australian tour, they can take comfort from the fact they're definitely in the reckoning.

"But the reality is it will be a different 12 for the first Test in Brisbane to what would have been picked in Bangladesh."

The likely absence of a second spinner for the Brisbane Test would leave NSW left-armer Steve O'Keefe on the outer, while it could also hurt the chances of off-spinning allrounder Glenn Maxwell.

The probable returns of Johnson and Hazlewood could leave fellow quicks Fekete and Faulkner – who was called in to the Bangladesh squad to replace the injured Pat Cummins – vulnerable at the selection table.

The postponement of the Bangladesh series means Australia will walk out onto the Gabba next month having not played a match of red-ball cricket for 74 days.

Players are expected to be available for the opening Shield round from October 28-31, which will be a day-night round played with a pink ball. Selectors will decide on the squad for the first Test after the second day of the Shield round.

It means that from the Matador Cup final on October 25 to the start of the Test summer 11 days later, some of the Test squad will play with the white ball, then the pink ball and then the red ball.

On the other hand, New Zealand will prepare for the series with a pink-ball one-day game against the Prime Minister's XI in Canberra, before two-day and four-day matches with the red ball against a CA XI.

"The disappointment obviously is that we have less red-ball opportunities due to the two Tests (being postponed)," said CA Executive General Manager of High Performance Pat Howard earlier this month.

"That's obviously going to change our plans a little bit.

"The first round of the Sheffield Shield has been moved back one day to make sure (the players) can play in the Matador Cup, do some red-ball preparation (at the two-day camp) but also play in that first day-night Shield round.

"So there are three different coloured balls coming so they're going to have to adapt. But the players love playing cricket and they will adapt and there are different opportunities to present themselves."

Australia red-ball camp squad: Steve Smith, David Warner, Cameron Bancroft, Joe Burns, Nathan Coulter-Nile, James Faulkner, Andrew Fekete, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Johnson, Usman Khawaja, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh, Shaun Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Peter Nevill, Steve O'Keefe, James Pattinson, Peter Siddle, Mitchell Starc, Adam Voges.
