Experts in Islamabad have predicted Pakistan’s Olympic team will not win a single medal.
Sports analyst and TV anchor Kashif Bloch said, "Emotionally, it's our right to hope for a medal but rationally we must not expect anything from there."
Pakistan have sent 37 members to the Olympics including 16 officials, a 16-member field hockey team, two swimmers, two athletes and a shooter.
