Admitting that India find itself in a difficult position in the ongoing first Test against South Africa here, batting mainstay Rahul Dravid today said the visitor's inexperienced pace attack missed injured Zaheer Khan's services badly.

"To be honest we are far too behind in this match," Dravid told reporters after South Africa piled up 366 for two on the second day in reply to India's paltry 136 in the first innings here.
