Around 2008, Brad Haddin was recognized by the Australian selectors as the heir apparent to Adam Gilchrist. After the iconic gloveman's retirement, Haddin became an essential cog in the Australian team with the bat and behind the wickets.

Haddin played 126 ODIs, 66 Tests and 34 T20Is for Australia. His regular performances in the limited overs circuit helped him gain an Indian Premier League stint. In the 2011 IPL auction, he was picked up by Kolkata Knight Riders for USD 350,000.

Haddin represented for the Kolkata Knight Riders in just one match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore and scored 17 runs. Though he was a member of the Kolkata team in the next few seasons, the game against Bangalore in the 2011 season remains his last IPL appearance.
