Profile

A bowling allrounder, Andre Adams adds a touch of dash to New Zealand's batting armoury with hard-hitting skills. However, he has struggled to make a consistent impact with his bowling and is not yet in the category of an assured selection in the one-day side. He has definite abilities in Test cricket as well, and can bowl the odd faster ball. However a bout of back injuries on the West Indies tour of 2002 allowed Jacob Oram to move ahead of him in the pecking order, and question marks were then raised about his attitude. He played in the 2003 World Cup, but soon lost his place again and was resigned to the life in the wilderness until he received a very late call-up to New Zealand's one-day squad in England towards the end of the 2004 NatWest Series. He didn't end up playing, but later signed with Essex for the remainder of the summer, where he stayed for the 2005 and 2006 seasons. He had a productive 2006-07 domestic season, claiming 32 wickets at 18.78 in the State Championship and scoring 318 runs at 39.75. However, this was overshadowed by his one-month suspension for grabbing and shaking the helmet of Central Districts batsman Bevan Griggs. Along the way, Adams was recalled for three ODIs against Sri Lanka in December but was overlooked for the World Cup and lost his national contract in May 2007. He was overlooked again the following season, despite impressive performances in the State Championship, and the frustration prompted him to sign a two-year contract with the unofficial Indian Cricket League.
