Listen in for the details.
Don't Listen to Andy Roberts
Andy Roberts was a great fast bowler, but his opinion on training bowlers is harmful. Don't listen to him.
In a Cricinfo interview, Roberts spoke about how important it is for fast bowlers to be fit. Wise words. After that it all went downhill fast,
"You need to do a lot of running, because that's what you do on a cricket field - running."
Actually, you don't.

Four Simple Ways to Take Fielding to the Next Level
A few years ago, only the best fielders would be diving, throwing down stumps and catching everything. Now anyone who can't do it is seen as a passenger.

PitchVision Coach of the Year Award: At the Heart of World-Class Cricket
PitchVision and Cricket South Africa have teamed up to find the best coaches in the country, and give them the recognition they deserve.
Quick Tip: Take Control of Practice
If you want your practice to go your way, you have to take responsibility.
One thing I often see at nets is the default having a hit: One person batting for 10 minutes with no purpose, and a range of bowlers. A good coach will do all she can to prevent this from happening but in a group setting it doesn't always work as planned.
So, you need to take a moment before, during and after the session.
