‘This Is Pakistan’s Lowest Level In Cricket’, Says Former Captain Rashid Latif
Pakistan Super League: After suffering the embarrassment of going winless in their first major home tournament since 1996 in the 2025 Champions Trophy, Pakistan were dealt with 4-1 and 3-0 defeats in the T20I and ODI series respectively against New Zealand.
Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif, in an exclusive interview with IANS, believes the additional bounce on offer in New Zealand and selection issues were the reason behind their debacle in the bilateral series.
“Just after the Champions Trophy, you have your bilateral commitments and then they (Pakistan squad) will go for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) for 38 days. I don’t understand this and they played very badly. The pitches in New Zealand are quite different. The ball used to seam and swing before but it did not bounce earlier, which troubled our batsman. The selection has not been up to the mark as well which has caused problems,” Latif told IANS.
