All-rounder Ben Stokes, who missed the last two test matches against Pakistan to visit his father who was diagnosed with brain cancer, has been omitted from both squads.
Opening batsman Jason Roy, who missed the T20 series against Pakistan due to a side strain, has been left out of the T20 squad but will remain with the squad as he bids to recover for the ODI series.
Batsman Jos Buttler and fast bowlers Jofra Archer, Sam Curran and Mark Wood have been named in both squads.
"These two series against Australia provide an exciting end to the summer. We have selected strong squads. We are also continuing to develop depth in preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cups," national selector Ed Smith said.
The three-match T20 series will be played at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton, with the first game scheduled for Friday.
The three ODIs take place from September 11-16 at Old Trafford in Manchester.
