Gemili: Team GB sprinters can compete with Jamaica
British sprinter Adam Gemili believes Team GB's 4X100m relay team can compete with Jamaica and USA in Rio for an Olympic medal.
Team GB were disqualified in the heats of the event at the London Olympics in 2012, but Gemili believes they can challenge for a place at the top of the podium.
"We've got a good chance, we're a new generation of sprinters and we're running really fast," he told 5 live Sport's Eleanor Oldroyd.
"We're going to give it our best shot and if we get the baton around we've got the foot-speed in the team. We believe we can be in amongst Jamaica and USA."
