Latif observed that Pakistan's fast bowlers, who were formerly their primary asset, have become less successful due to a decrease in velocity.
Rashid Latif, a former cricket player, has expressed alarm over Pakistan's fast-bowling attack's diminishing pace and has linked the team's recent problems—including a record loss to Bangladesh in Rawalpindi—to this notable slowdown.

Latif noted that Pakistan's best fast bowlers used to be their strongest suit, but their pace has significantly declined, which has affected their effectiveness.
A while back, it was unimaginable to lose to teams like Bangladesh. The loss in Rawalpindi was primarily due to our bowlers' inability to bowl at a fast tempo, Rashid stated in a Cricbuzz interview.
He emphasized that bowlers who bowled at 145 kmph at first, including Khurram Shahzad, Naseem Shah, and Shaheen Afridi, now bowl at about 130 kmph.
Rashid chastised the support staff for not keeping up with the bowlers' speed and questioned if injuries are being covered up.

Rashid also criticized Pakistan's strategies, especially their choice to end their first innings at 448/6.
He maintained that in order to get a better position in the game, the squad ought to have gone for a bigger total.

It was a hasty decision to declare at 448 for six. Rashid continued, "They should have gone for 550, which could have made the difference," noting that Bangladesh eventually outperformed Pakistan due to their greater ability to adjust to the circumstances and their dependence on spinners.
In the Rawalpindi Test on Sunday, Bangladesh created history by defeating Pakistan by 10 wickets. On the last day of play, Pakistan was bowled out for a mere 146 runs in their second innings.
