Wicketkeeper Brad Haddin says gaining Test cricket selection is the easy part – it’s just up to him to perform.

NSW stumper Haddin has displayed a good early season as he looks to force his way back into the Australian team.

He scored a fluent 114 against Tasmania last week.

The 34-year-old year old wicketkeeper struggled last summer and was rested from the Australian team in the one-day Tri-Series, though he later insisted he had actually been dropped.

He returned from the Test tour of the West Indies after his young daughter Mia became seriously ill and Matthew Wade took over the wicketkeeping duties.

Haddin, who will lead there Sydney Sixers in this month’s Champions League T20 tournament in South Africa isn’t fretting about international selection.

“Selection to me has always been the easy issue,” Haddin said.

“You can get carried away with what’s going on, but the bottom line is that the easiest way to get selected for the team is actually to take the decision right out of the hands of the selectors and perform.

“I’ve always thought about making sure I’m prepared the best I possibly can be and the selection part is the easy part.

“If you are are performing you will get picked and if you are not up to scratch, you won’t.”

While pleased with his century last week, Haddin was even happier with his early season glovework.

“My keeping has been in a pretty good place for a while now and last week it felt sharp and in Perth it felt outstanding,” Haddin said.

“As much as it was good to get the runs, my number one job is to be a wicketkeeper and I couldn’t be happier with where that’s at.”

Haddin said he would probably bat himself in the top three in the Champions League.

Sixers’ chief executive Stuart Clark is still waiting to hear whether Jamaica’s Olympic sprint triple medallist Yohan Blake will join the Sixers for the domestic T20 Big Bash competition, but said it was long odds on that happening.

The Sixers will have New Zealander Nathan McCullum and Englishman Michael Lumb in their squad for the Champions League.

Clark said the Sixers still had a couple of roster spots open for the Big bash.

He expressed interest and admiration for the Pakistani batting trio of Imran Nazir, Nasir Jamshed and Umar Akmal.
