Haidee Maree Tiffen MNZM (born 4 September 1979) is a New Zealand cricket coach and former cricket player.[1] She played as an all-rounder, batting right-handed and bowling right-arm medium. She appeared in 2 Test matches, 117 One Day Internationals and 9 Twenty20 Internationals for New Zealand between 1999 and 2009. She played domestic cricket for Canterbury, as well as playing two seasons for Sussex.[2][3]

Tiffen was born in Timaru on 4 September 1979 and attended Timaru Girls' High School, where she was head girl in 1997.[4]

Once acknowledged as one of the best all-rounders in the game, Tiffen announced her retirement after leading her side to the final of the 2009 Women's Cricket World Cup.[2] At that time, her 2,919 career ODI runs were surpassed by only six other women, and for New Zealand only Debbie Hockley exceeded her.[5] She was short-listed for the ICC Women's Player of the Year Award in 2006, eventually losing out to Karen Rolton.[2]

Tiffen was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the 2011 New Year Honours, for services to women's cricket.[6]

She was head coach for New Zealand women's team from April 2015 to March 2019.[7][8]
