Brad Haddin represented Australia in all three forms of international cricket – Test, One Day International and Twenty20. Brad played 66 Tests (being the 400^th player to don the famous Baggy Green) and 126 ODIs for Australia. He was a key member in Australia’s famous 2015 World Cup win.

Modern Australian wicketkeepers are renowned for being tough and uncompromising, and Brad was a fitting inheritor of the job held by the likes of Rod Marsh and Ian Healy. His immediate predecessor was Adam Gilchrist, whose presence prevented Haddin from making his Test debut until the age of 30. However, Brad made up for lost time by eventually becoming Vice-Captain to Michael Clarke and a key senior figure in a developing side. Never was he more important than in during the 2013-14 Ashes clean sweep, when he bailed Australia out of tricky positions in every first innings of the campaign. His 493 runs at 61.62 put him second only to David Warner on the run tally and he was nimble behind the stumps, and it was only Mitchell Johnson’s reign of terror that prevented Brad being Player of the Series.

Throughout Brad’s Test career, he scored 3266 runs from 66 Tests and took 262 catches along with 8 stumpings. He retired from all formats of international cricket in 2015.

In recent times, Brad played for the Kolkata Knight Raiders in the Indian Premier League (IPL), was the Inaugural Captain of the Sydney Sixers (winning the competition) in the Big Bash League (BBL) and for Islamabad United in the Pakistan Super League held in the UAE in 2016-17 season. He also became Assistant Head Coach for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL in 2020.
