"I am thrilled to get the opportunity to work with this young group of players," Haddin said in a statement. "I grew up in an era of players like Andrew Symonds and Ricky Ponting who gave Australian cricket a real identity in the standards of world-class fielding. They were the type of players who took it personally if the team wasn't fielding well and that created a level for the rest of the group to aspire to."
Haddin retired from international cricket post the Ashes 2015 and has been involved in assisting the New South Wales Under-17 and Under-19 squads since then.
