Anna Meares and Kaarle McCulloch won Australia the second gold after lifting the women's team sprint title on Thursday in Pruszkow of Poland at the world track cycling championships.

The duo beat defending champions Victoria Pendleton and ShanazeReade of Britain. The bronze went to Lithuania.

Australia top the medals table with two golds, two silvers and one bronze.

France's Morgan Kneisky won the men's scratch race, ahead of Argentina's Dario Colla and Andreas Muller of Austria.

The three were part of a six-man move which formed halfway through the 60-lap event and lapped the field

Germany took their first gold medal of the championships thanks to Maximilian Levy's victory in the men's Keirin. France's Francois Pervis won the silver and Teun Mulder of the Netherlands finished with bronze.
