Fast bowler Gus Atkinson Adds to the English team's Injury Concerns.
'Significant concern' for the English camp after Atkinson leaves the field suffering a hamstring problem.
The pace bowler increased the injury concerns plaguing England upon exiting the ground during Saturday's play of the fourth Ashes Test in the Ashes series.
The pace bowler felt a problem in his left leg after the final ball that he bowled during the morning session.
Team management indicated the 27-year-old had experienced "tightness" and was to take time off the field to undergo evaluation "in the coming hours".
The series decider of the tour at the SCG starts this coming Sunday.
The English side has already lost fast bowlers Mark Wood with a knee problem and another paceman because of a side injury on the current trip.
A replacement bowler was brought into the squad as injury reinforcement.
His form was underwhelming early in the series, claiming a mere three wickets.
He was omitted of the third Test, only to be brought back for the fourth Test as Archer's replacement.
Atkinson showed better form in Melbourne, claiming a couple of wickets with the ball, and scoring 28 runs as a batsman among just a trio of teammates to reach double figures.
Following a brief spell in Australia's second innings, he came back on Saturday morning and removed Scott Boland edging to the keeper.
Unfortunately, towards the conclusion of that over, he sent down a change of pace to the batsman and suddenly grabbed his left hamstring.
Gus Atkinson was recalled for the fourth Ashes Test having missed the Adelaide game.
