Scott Bernard Styris (born Brisbane, Australia 10 July 1975) is a New Zealand cricketer.

Scott Styris was educated at Hamilton Boys' High School. He has represented Auckland and Northern Districts since 1994/95 as a right-handed batsman and right-arm medium bowler. He is a useful all-rounder in one-day international because of his handy medium-pacers and his middle order striking.

He made his ODI debut for New Zealand in 1999/2000 and his Test debut in 2002.

He represented Middlesex from 2005 to 2006 and deputised for the county captain Ben Hutton in several matches. He received his county cap during the 2006 season.

Styris' pugnacious batting style and distinctive gait led to former England captain Nasser Hussain referring to him as a "street fighter" during the 2006 World Cup pool match between England and New Zealand.
