With spin expected to dominate the tournament in the UAE in October, Astle is the third spinner in the 15-man squad alongside Mitchell Santner and Ish Sodhi.
Colin de Grandhomme and Hamish Bennett are among those to miss out.
Adam Milne has been named as injury cover.
New Zealand Cricket has also named squads for leadup tours of Bangladesh and Pakistan as it tries to manage player and staff welfare.
The Test squad to tour India will not be announced for another month.
A total of 32 players will be used including two new to the set-up in Canterbury all-rounder Cole McConchie, and Wellington paceman Ben Sears.
Additionally, a new crew of coaching staff, headed by Wellington coach Glenn Pocknall, will lead the tours to Bangladesh and Pakistan alongside experienced manager Mike Sandle - with regular Black Caps bowling coach Shane Jurgenson joining as head coach for the Pakistan T20 series.
Tom Latham will captain the side in Bangladesh and Pakistan, and the usual combination of skipper Kane Williamson and coach Gary Stead will resume duties for the T20 World Cup and the Test tour to India.

Ross Taylor was selected for the three ODIs in Pakistan but, with the brief nature of the one-week series and the length of quarantine protocols, it was mutually agreed he would remain at home to prepare for the Indian Test tour and upcoming home summer.
The first New Zealand squad will depart for Bangladesh on the 23rd of this month and the players from the Test tour to India will return home and emerge from MIQ just before Christmas.
NZC chief executive David White said changing times demanded changing strategies, with player welfare and support now one of professional sport's biggest challenges, particularly in the current pandemic environment.
"The need to safeguard the well-being of our players and support staff is now very real, and we've endeavoured to do this by carefully managing their workloads over this winter's massive playing programme," said Mr White.
"As the Black Caps proved in England earlier this year, we have good depth in the New Zealand game and I'm confident all the squads chosen will acquit themselves well."
White confirmed that those Black Caps involved in the prematurely suspended IPL21 would be allowed to re-join their franchises, and complete the competition when it re-starts in September.
