Brad Haddin, born in 1977 in New South Wales, Australia, is a former professional cricketer known for his role as a wicket-keeper and right-handed batsman. With an estimated net worth of $1.8 million, Haddin is now enjoying retirement following an extensive international and domestic cricket career. He represented Australia in all formats—Test, One-Day Internationals (ODIs), and Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is)—and played domestically for the New South Wales Blues in both List A and first-class cricket.
Brad Haddin is married to Karina Castle, and together they have a daughter, Mia. His autobiography, My Family's Keeper, provides a deeply personal account of Mia's battle with cancer, which significantly impacted Haddin’s professional life. He recounts receiving a life-altering phone call from Karina while on tour in the West Indies with the Australian team. Upon learning of Mia’s diagnosis, Haddin made the decision to skip an Ashes Test to be by his daughter's side. He described the decision as an obvious one, given the emotional distress and the decline in his performance following the news.
Mia was diagnosed with a tumor in 2012, but the Haddin family chose to keep the matter private for several years. However, as her treatment progressed and circumstances grew more complex, the situation became public around 2016. The emotional toll led Haddin to withdraw from the Lord’s Test in order to return home to support his family. Although he consistently maintained a high level of athletic performance throughout his career, Haddin prioritized his daughter's wellbeing over the game during this critical time.
