In domestic cricket he represented the Cobras as a left arm spin bowler (combine name of Western Province and Boland first class cricket teams). He played 141 first class matches, 24 ODI’S, 45 test matches and took 412, 29, 134 wickets respectively.

He had a very awkward bowling action and in most conditions he deceive the batsman.  Normally a bowler has both his hands in opposite directions when he bowls like up and down. But Paul Adams first gets his both hands in parallel and then throws a bowl taking his hand way over his head towards his hips. He seems to fall down with every bowl yet he delivers it beautifully.
