Have a bit of a dilemma. I suppose it solves itself in a way but I'm still apprehensive and would appreciate some input.
So my bowling attack is pretty innocuous. There's some good bowlers but none of them are attacking or destructive and hence I don't have much firepower. Here's my attack:

Obviously both Hyde and Dickinson are on substantial nettage each.
Okay, so on to my dillemma. It obviously involves the fact they're all defensive, cautious and steady, as well as the fact that I'm short as hell on batting strength. I'd ideally like a strike bowler in the exceptional-sensational skill range (pretty much the same as Dwyer's Everett). Now, I currently have 3m in the bank. What I'm thinking about is selling both Dickinson and Hyde and hopefully having enough to buy a strike bowler. This would free up ample nets to train another batsman and a 5th bowler.
Obviously, it all depends on whether I can pull a good batsman and a good bowler YP early next season. But I'd still like opinions on whether people think this is a good idea or think I should just sit on the 3m and save for another batsman, allowing the training to do its work.
