With Australia not having their two key players Steve Smith and David Warner, batting great Sachin Tendulkar believes that it will be a "huge opportunity" for India to do something special Down Under.

"I think we have a huge opportunity (in Australia). You (the reporter) correctly put it, the Australian team does not look the same Australian side that it used to be and with Smith and Warner not there, this is a great opportunity to go out and do something special," Tendulkar said when asked about India's chances in the upcoming tour.
