Paceman Gus Atkinson Compounds the English team's Fitness Concerns.
'Significant concern' for the English camp as Atkinson goes off suffering a hamstring problem.
Gus Atkinson further complicated the fitness woes of the England squad after leaving the field early on day two of the fourth Ashes Test versus the Australians.
Atkinson felt a problem in his left leg post-delivery in his spell at the MCG.
The England team stated Atkinson felt some "soreness" and would spend time off the field to undergo evaluation "during the day".
The concluding match of the series at the SCG gets underway this coming Sunday.
The English side has been without key quicks Mark Wood due to knee trouble and another paceman because of a side injury on this Ashes tour.
Matthew Fisher was added to the party as cover for Wood.
His form was underwhelming in the opening two Tests, managing only a handful of scalps.
He was omitted of the third Test, then recalled for the fourth Test as Archer's replacement.
Atkinson improved at the MCG, claiming a couple of wickets with the ball, and scoring 28 runs as a batsman among just a trio of England players to get into double digits.
After bowling one over at the end of day one, he came back on Saturday morning and dismissed the nightwatchman edging to the keeper.
Yet, on the final ball of that over, he delivered a variation to Travis Head and suddenly grabbed for his hamstring.
Gus Atkinson returned to the side for the fourth Ashes Test after being left out the Adelaide game.
