New Zealand has finished as the top nation in the track cycling at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games after another golden day for the riders in black.

Ellesse Andrews and Aaron Gate both won titles today meaning they finished the programme with three gold medals each.

Andrews won the Keirin final with a controlled ride, after taking the lead with two laps to go.

The 22-year-old was impressive through qualifying and was one of the favourites for the title, after claiming the silver medal at last year's Olympics.

She has previously won gold medals in the individual and team sprints, and admits to Sky Sport that she didn't expected to do so well.

"I'm so overwhelmed, I cam here obviously wanting to my absolute best and leave everything out on the track but I never could have imagined that this would be the final outcome."

Andrews also filled in in the team pursuit following an injury and helped them to a silver medal.

Gate dominated the last event on the programme - the men's points race.

He won some of the early sprints to take the lead and then with the help of his team-mates, was able to keep the opposition at bay.

Gate also won gold in the individual and team pursuit.

Michaela Drummond won silver in the women's scratch race, after a crash forced teammate Bryony Botha out of the 40km event.
