One of the highlights of his career was being part of the Australian squad that won the 2015 Cricket World Cup. Shortly afterward, he announced his retirement from One-Day Internationals in May 2015. On 9 September 2015, he formally retired from both first-class and international cricket. During his career, Haddin also served as an ambassador for the Sydney Cricket Ground, alongside teammate Steven Smith.

Domestically, he continued to play for the Sydney Sixers in Australia’s Big Bash League (BBL) even after his international retirement, contributing his experience and leadership to the team.

The 2015 Ashes and Controversial Exit

Haddin’s international cricket journey concluded during the 2015 Ashes Series. When he withdrew from the second Test due to his daughter’s illness, he was replaced by debutant Peter Nevill. This replacement decision drew criticism, notably from former Australian wicketkeeper Ian Healy, who described the move as a "harsh call." Despite the controversy, the team stuck with Nevill, effectively marking the end of Haddin’s Test career.
