New Delhi, Nov 2: While there have been a lot of talk about the upcoming Day-Night Test between India and Bangladesh at the Eden Gardens from November 22 and the ban on the visiting team captain Shakib Al Hasan, the T20I series gets underway on Sunday. And former Australia batsman Dean Jones believes that regular skipper Virat Kohli's absence - rested for the T20I series -- will mean an opportunity for the youngsters in the team to stand up and get counted.

Speaking to IANS, Jones said that while it is a fact that an Indian team minus Kohli is a little weak, it also provides the team management an opportunity to try different combinations with an eye on the WT20 next year.
