New Zealand batsman Scott Styris announced his retirement from Test cricket on Sunday, saying he wanted to focus on One-Day Internationals and Twenty20.
The 32-year-old said he had to reduce his workload because of niggling injuries and believed he could prolong his career if he concentrated on the abbreviated forms of the game.
"I want to play for New Zealand for as long as I can," he told the New Zealand Press Association on Sunday.
"At the moment I feel with the amount of injuries I'm getting, if I don't knock something on the head I won't be around in 12 months time.
"I'd like to play another World Cup and if I'm to get through to it (2011) something has to give."
