Louw made his One Day International debut for Namibia in the World Cup in 2003 at the age of 43, having spent the previous 27 years playing first-class cricket in South Africa. He also played in the ICC Trophy between 1994 and 2001. At the 2001 ICC Trophy, he also coached Namibia.

In February 2020, he was named in Namibia's squad for the Over-50s Cricket World Cup in South Africa.[1][2] However, the tournament was cancelled during the third round of matches due to the coronavirus pandemic.[3]
