The Newcastle United striker was dropped along with other players including Mamadou Niang, Souleymane Diawara and Moussa Sow, who recently moved to Fenerbahce in Turkey in a 10-million-euro transfer from French champions Lille.
Co-coaches Karim Sega Diouf and Aliou Cisse, who are acting in a caretaker capacity after the firing of Amara Traore, have promoted several players from the country's under-23 side for the first match for Senegal since a disastrous Nations Cup campaign.
Traore was sacked earlier this month after Senegal, one of the pre-Nations Cup favourites, lost all three group games at the tournament in Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.
Among those who survived the cull were Ba's new Newcastle team-mate Papiss Demba Cisse and Wigan Athletic midfielder Mouhamed Diame.
Back in the squad is striker Mame Biram Diouf, formerly on the books at Manchester United, who is now at Hannover in the Bundesliga.
