10 players who ended their career with an Ashes series

#2 Brad Haddin (2015)

Brad Haddin

Playing in the same era as Adam Gilchrist meant that Brad Haddin was forever playing second fiddle to the Aussie great. But with the legend's retirement, Haddin emerged from his shadows and carved a niche for himself in Australia's young side. Haddin made his ODI debut way back in 2001 but had to wait until 2008 to claim a place in the Test side (becoming Australia’s 400th Test player).

From 2009 to 2015, Brad Haddin played in every Ashes series. His Ashes numbers are very good and they were better than his career numbers. In 20 Ashes Tests, he scored 1366 runs at an average of 41.39. In the 2013-14 Ashes at home, he was one of the unsung heroes for Australia as he scored 493 at a brilliant average 61.63. He scored 5 fifties and 1 century in the 8 innings he batted.

In the 2015 Ashes in England, he played only one Test before he had to return home due to family reasons. He eventually called time on his career at the end of the series.
