Parvinder Awana of Delhi won the Scorpio speedster contest final with a speed of 138 kph in the finals for the hunt for India's fastest bowler at the Shivaji Park Gymkhana here today. Ashok Kumar Dinda, who also bowled at 138 kph was placed second as the Delhi lad had bowled the second bowl faster than the Kolkata lad, while the remaining three bowls were bowled at the speed of 135 kph by both the bowlers. Awana won Rs 75,000 while Dinda had to be content with Rs 25,000. However, both of them have made it to the Australian centre of excellence at Brisbane to be trained by former Aussie speedster Damien Fleming.
http://www.mid-day.com/news/2004/dec/99758.htm Speeds of 136-138 seven years ago by Awana when he was 18 , though not under match conditions. has had a injury plagued career since then though. Hopefully he plays the entire season and continues the great start he has had so far.

Even munaf patel was bowling at early 140s 4-5 years ago... makes no difference.... what matters is what speeds he generated in the last year..

Dinda and Awana should be nurtured- Akash Chopra While much of the Indian domestic season is remembered for the big hundreds scored by batsmen on rather lifeless surfaces, it would be a good idea to look out for men who swam against the tide and yet went unnoticed. Though there are a few bowlers who did better than the rest, my pick of the season are two faster men, who bowled relentlessly at a reasonable pace. They made the batsmen hop and jump if there was bounce on offer. They even searched for reverse swing when the track was too dry to offer lateral movement. On those rare occasions when the track assisted seam bowling, they pitched the ball fuller and troubled the best of the lot. Ashok Dinda and Parvinder Awana are the ones who impressed the most amongst the new crop of medium/fast bowlers. Dinda, the man from Kolkata, burst onto the scene only because Ponting insisted on having him on-board for the Kolkata Knight Riders. Initially, a net bowler, he bowled a lot better and, more importantly, a lot quicker than a lot of bowlers in the squad. His inclusion was completely out of turn, for he was not even in BengalÃÔ scheme of things for the Ranji trophy. Dinda made heads turn with his performances in IPL-I, but soon faded away. He went on to play a few ODIs for India too but his career failed to take off the way it ought to have. Many believed that he got carried away with the IPL success and paid little heed to the all important first-class performances. This season Dinda turned it around. Perhaps, it was the inclusion of Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron, Vinay Kumar, Abhinayu Mithun and S Aravind that spurred him on to raise the bar. HeÃÅ played for India much before these guys but had failed to make himself count. Today, Dinda seems to have realized the importance of taking a bagful of wickets in the Ranji trophy he now looks a different bowler. He was at his very best in the recently concluded Duleep trophy and was the sole reason for East Zone creating history by winning the trophy for the first time. He seems ready to be inducted back into the Indian team this stay at the top would hopefully be a lot longer than his earlier stint. The other player selectors should be keeping an eye on, is Parvinder Awana from Delhi. He is the ideal hit-the-deck-hard bowler, whoÃÅ be more successful in the higher grade of cricket. Most successful bowlers in the domestic circuit are swing/release bowlers as the SG Test ball responds the best when itÃÔ released. But itÃÔ exactly the opposite thatÃÔ needed to succeed at the highest level. One expects the bowler to get the ball to do something off the surface, for swing sans the pace is much easier to negotiate Awana qualifies perfectly for this bracket. He has a smooth run-up, an easy high-arm action and the strength to bowl longer spells at consistent pace. Since he isnÃÕ a part of the IPL yet, chances are that his contributions might be overlooked. But the ÃØise men would do well to keep him in the loop for the future. Bowlers like Dinda and Awana, who can bowl reasonably quick are rare commodities. They ought to be protected and nurtured. http://cricket.yahoo.com/news/dinda-and-awana-should-be-nurtured.html
