Syed Adney made his Malaysia debut against Bahrain in a 2010 FIFA World Cup Asian qualifier. He had also famously saved a penalty, a corner kick, a goal kick and a backpass against Singapore in the third game of the group stages in the 2007 SEA Games, where Malaysia needed a win to go through.
In 2008 AFF Suzuki Cup, Syed Adney took Mohd Helmi Eliza Elias's place to play the last group game which Malaysia lost 3-0 to Thailand, with Adney saving the embarrassment of conceding five goals.
