The much-changed side will be led by new Test captain Steve Smith, who replaces ex-skipper Michael Clarke.
Batsman Clarke, 34, was one of five players to retire after this summer's 3-2 Ashes defeat by England, while David Warner is injured.
Bowlers Mitchell Johnson and Josh Hazlewood have both been rested after figuring extensively in Test series' against West Indies and England.
In addition to Clarke, wicketkeeper Brad Haddin, pace bowler Ryan Harris and batsman Chris Rogers have ended their international careers, while all-rounder Shane Watson has quit Test cricket.
Australia's first Test against Bangladesh gets under way on 9 October.
Australia: Steve Smith (c), Adam Voges, Cameron Bancroft, Joe Burns, Patrick Cummins, Andrew Fekete, Usman Khawaja, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh, Shaun Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Peter Nevill, Stephen O'Keefe, Peter Siddle, Mitchell Starc.
