Veteran Australia opener David Warner said on Friday he plans to still be playing Twenty20 internationals for the 2024 World Cup, but will assess his Test future over the next year. Warner, who will be 36 next week, has been ever-present at the top of the order for more than a decade, bar a one-year ban for ball-tampering in 2018, playing 96 Tests, 138 ODIs and 95 T20s. He told The Sydney Morning Herald he had no plans to call it quits yet, with his immediate focus on Australia's defence of their T20 world title starting on Saturday against New Zealand in Sydney.


"I'll keep playing T20s. I'll look to try and get to the 2024 World Cup," he said, referring to the event being co-hosted by the United States and West Indies.


"And I've got my goal set on playing next year in the 50-over World Cup (in India)."
