Pakistan's Twenty20 captain Shahid Afridi, who has not played a Test since 2006, is planning to retire from the longer version of the game along with fellow all-rounder Abdul Razzaq.
Sources said both the players would be meeting Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ijaz Butt next week to convey their decision.
"They are not interested in playing Test matches any longer and just want to concentrate on extending their international careers in the one-day internationals and Twenty20 matches," a source said.
Both Afridi and Razzaq last played a Test match in 2006.
He pointed out that both the players were not interested in touring England for the Test matches against Australia and England because they wanted to spend more time with their families.
