Pravin Kalyan Amre pronunciation (help·info), born in August 14, 1968, Mumbai, is an Indian cricketer.

Amre represented India in 11 Test matches scoring one 100 and three 50s with a batting average of 42.50. However, these figures did not help him to become a regular fixture in the national team. He found himself in Indian colours just for two seasons from 1992 to 1994.

He had the rare honour of scoring a century in his debut Test match. It came against a South African side that included Allan Donald and Brian McMillan.He was known to be asthmatic.

He had a good record in domestic cricket playing for Bombay, Railways, Rajasthan and Bengal. He also played in South Africa with Boland.

Amre came from the same school of cricketers as Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli, and like Tendulkar and Kambli, he was also coached by Ramakant Achrekar.
