Fast bowler Atkinson Exacerbates the English team's Injury Concerns.
'Significant concern' for England after Atkinson goes off with a hamstring injury.
Gus Atkinson further complicated the injury concerns plaguing England after leaving the ground early on day two of the fourth Ashes Test in the Ashes series.
The right-arm seamer felt a problem in his left hamstring immediately following a delivery in his spell on Saturday.
Team management indicated Atkinson reported "discomfort" and would spend time on the sidelines to undergo evaluation "over the next few hours".
The final Test in this Ashes battle in Sydney begins at the end of the week.
The English side has been without key quicks Mark Wood with a knee problem and Jofra Archer because of a side injury on this Ashes tour.
Matthew Fisher was added to the party as cover for Wood.
The seamer had a tough time during the first two matches, claiming a mere three wickets.
He was dropped for the Adelaide match, only to be brought back for the Melbourne Test in the playing XI.
The county bowler improved at the MCG, taking two wickets during the host's first knock, and scoring 28 runs as a batsman as one of just three England players to get into double digits.
Following a brief spell at the end of day one, he came back the next day and dismissed the nightwatchman Scott Boland caught behind.
However, on the final ball of his spell, he sent down a change of pace to the batsman and promptly felt at his leg.
Atkinson returned to the side for the Melbourne match having missed the Adelaide game.
