Pakistan ahead of india in the olympics 2024!!!
India is currently ranked 69th in the medal tally of Paris Olympics 2024. In this list, pakistan is ranked 58th with one gold medal. Although india has won more medals than pakistan, it is still 10 places below in the ranking.
Neeraj Chopra was the country's biggest hope for a gold medal after wrestler Vinesh Phogat was disqualified before the 50 kg women's freestyle final. But Neeraj also could not get that medal for India. Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem defeated him. After the results of the men's javelin throw final, pakistan overtook india in the medal tally.
The success of countries in the olympics is usually judged on the basis of the number of gold medals. If a country has 10 silver or bronze medals, it will be placed below a country with one gold medal. The number of silver or bronze medals matters only when the gold of two countries is equal.
Pak won gold after 40 years
Pakistan won its first Olympic gold medal after 40 years through Arshad Nadeem in javelin throw. He not only won gold but also created a new Olympic record. pakistan has a total of three gold medals in the olympics so far, all of which were won by the hockey team in the years 1960, 1968 and 1984. Only two players have won individual Olympic medals in Pakistan's history. Both were bronze medals, one in wrestling in 1960 and the other in boxing in 1988. pakistan last won a bronze medal in hockey in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.
