Melbourne, Jul 26: Australia's upcoming tour of India would be a big challenge for the youngsters of the team who are yet to play Test cricket in the sub-continent, feels opener Simon Katich.
Katich said it would be a very tough two-Test series against the Indians later this year.
"We do have obviously quite a few young guys stepping into Test cricket now who haven't played in India before, so that will be a test for them, but it's going to be a good challenge," Katich was quoted as saying by the Australian Associated Press.
Australia will tour India in October this year for two Tests and three One-day Internationals.
