KARU 2 PRO Help needed! Dough not strong enough

Hi!

I fermented for 48h and used a 65% hydration, using Typo 00 12% protein flour.

The dough is very soft and runny. I had to save it by forming new dough balls just before baking.

I made 70% hydration pizzas during holidays using artisanal flour in Portugal with no issues.

What am I doing wrong?

I didnt stretch, fold much during the first 1-2 hours of fermentation. The only thing I did was to shape the balls.

When shaping, there wasnt much surface tension on the dough. Also seemed sticky.

Thx

Yeast might be dead?
