| Mark Shields said there was sufficient information to continue a full investigation into the death.
The International Cricket Council has confirmed that Pakistan will definitely play their final World Cup group match against Zimbabwe on Wednesday.
Woolmer, 58, died on Sunday after collapsing at the team hotel, hours after Pakistan's shock loss to Ireland.
Mr Shields said that the body could not be released until the pathologist had completed his examination.
"I know that the scientists are treating it with the utmost urgency in order that we can hopefully repatriate the body to his family as soon as possible," said Mr Shields.
"I just know they are working as quickly as possible to provide the information that we need. I hope it's today but it could be tomorrow."
Pakistan's game against Zimbabwe will be preceded by a minute's silence as a mark of respect for Woolmer.
When the investigation is completed, Woolmer's body will be taken back to his home in Cape Town, South Africa, accompanied by team trainer Murray Stevenson.
Pakistan Cricket Board spokesman Pervez told a news conference that further investigations were being carried out by medical experts.
