Vice-captain of the Test team for much of the last two years, the 37-year-old will continue to play only Twenty20 cricket for the Sydney Sixers.

Haddin controversially lost his place on Australia's England tour after performing below his usual high standards in the opening game and returned home last month for family reasons.

Haddin played 66 Tests but had to wait until he was 30 to win his first Test cap following the retirement of Adam Gilchrist. Only three Australian wicket-keepers played more Tests than Haddin: Ian Healy (119), Adam Gilchrist (96) and Rod Marsh (96).

Haddin said he has planned to spend more time with his family after retirement. "(My wife) Karina and I would like to get more involved with Westmead Hospital and see if we can do anything to help there," he said.

"It gives me the opportunity to sit back and watch the kids growing up," Haddin said.
