Paceman Gus Atkinson Exacerbates the English team's Injury Worries.
'Serious blow' for the touring side after Atkinson leaves the field due to a hamstring issue.
The English seamer further complicated the injury concerns plaguing England after leaving the ground during Saturday's play in the Melbourne Test against Australia.
The right-arm seamer experienced discomfort in his left leg post-delivery of the fourth over on Saturday.
Team management indicated Atkinson felt some "soreness" and was to take time away from the action for further assessment "in the coming hours".
The series decider of the series in Sydney starts this coming Sunday.
England have already lost strike bowlers Mark Wood with a knee problem and Jofra Archer to a side strain during this series.
Matthew Fisher was brought into the squad as cover for Wood.
His form was underwhelming in the opening two Tests, managing only three wickets.
He was omitted for the Adelaide match, before being recalled for the fourth Test to fill the void.
The county bowler showed better form in Melbourne, claiming a couple of wickets in Australia's first innings, and scoring 28 runs with the bat being one of only three English batsmen to reach double figures.
After bowling one over in Australia's second innings, he returned on Saturday morning and removed Scott Boland taken by the wicketkeeper.
Yet, on the final ball of that over, he delivered a change of pace to Travis Head and immediately felt at his leg.
Gus Atkinson was brought back for the Melbourne match after being left out the previous Test.
