Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Adams started his first class journey in 1997 and made his ODI debut in 2001. A year later he was also given his first Test cap against England. Though he picked up 6 wickets in the game, a back injury during the tour of West Indies kept him out of the side and gave Jacob Oram, a similar type of cricketer a chance to go ahead of him. Adams' first taste of county cricket came when he signed for Essex, but it was Nottinghamshire who got the best out of him. He signed as a Kolpak player for them in 2008 and in useful conditions at Trent Bridge, Adams became a handful.
Adams played the 2003 World Cup, but was soon dropped. However, consistent performances for his domestic side Auckland meant he was given another chance to represent his country. He played three ODIs against Sri Lanka in 2007 before being overlooked for the World Cup. Soon he lost his central contract with New Zealand Cricket as well.
In 2008, Adams joined Notts and thus started a long association with the county side. He first signed for two years and won the player of the year for consecutive seasons. During that period, he scalped 68 wickets each and helped his side win the county championship in 2010. Over the course of the next three years, Adams picked more than 50 wickets each season, only Monty Panesar and Alan Richardson could match his consistency. Overall, he ended with 344 sticks at 24.04 for Notts including 16 five-wicket hauls and three 10-wicket hauls. His journey with Notts came to an end in 2014, after eight long years.
Adams was also part of the Auckland Aces that won the one-day and T20 domestic tournament in 2010. He took part in the 2011 Champions League and also helped the Aces retain the T20 trophy in 2011-12. He also played the Bangladesh Premier League - representing Khulna Royal Bengal.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Andre Adams, an all-rounder, albeit better known latterly for his right-arm swing bowling than his uninhibited late-order hitting, added a touch of dash to New Zealand's one-day armoury in what could be regarded as the first phase of his career before making his mark as a highly-regarded and crowd-pleasing player in the English professional game
He struggled to make a consistent impact with his bowling on the international stage and lost his place in early 2007, signalling the end of his international career. His first taste of county cricket was with Essex between 2004-6 but it was Nottinghamshire who saw the best of him. He joined them as a Kolpak player in 2008 and found the responsive seam-bowling conditions at Trent Bridge so perfect for his skills that he began a long association with the county.
Adams made his Test debut against England at Auckland in 2002 and took three wickets in each innings. But a series of back injuries on the West Indies tour of 2002 allowed Jacob Oram to move ahead of him in the pecking order, and he was not selected again. He played in the 2003 World Cup but again soon lost his place.
He had a productive 2006-07 domestic season for Auckland, claiming 32 wickets at 18.78 in New Zealand's domestic first-class State Championship and scoring 318 runs at 39.75. But this was overshadowed by a 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 signed a two-year contract with the short-lived Indian Cricket League.
In 2008, Adams joined Nottinghamshire, initially on a two-year deal. He was named the club's player of the year in consecutive seasons, after taking 68 first-class wickets as Nottinghamshire won the County Championship in 2010. Between 2011 and 2013, he took more than 50 Championship wickets in each of the three seasons and only Monty Panesar and Alan Richardson could point to such consistency.
In all, he took 344 first-class wickets for Notts at 24.18 including 16 five-wicket hauls and three 10-wicket match tallies. Renowned for an all-or-nothing approach to batting -- his 31 sixes in the 2011 season was the highest tally in England in first-class cricket -- he had three first-class centuries to his name.
He ended his eight-year association with Nottinghamshire at the end of the 2014 season, accepting a three-month playing contract at Hampshire as he began an envisaged move into coaching.
Adams played only first-class matches in England but appeared in 50 and 20-over games during the English close season. He was part of the Auckland Aces side that won New Zealand's domestic one-day cup and Twenty20 tournaments in 2010-11 and represented them in the Champions League T20 in India. The Aces retained their T20 crown in 2011-12. Adams also appeared in the first Bangladesh Premier League, for eventual semi-finalists, Khulna Royal Bengals.
