Fast bowler Gus Atkinson Adds to the English team's Fitness Problems.
'Significant concern' for the touring side as Atkinson goes off suffering a hamstring problem.
The pace bowler increased the injury concerns plaguing England upon exiting the playing area early on day two in the Melbourne Test against Australia.
The right-arm seamer experienced discomfort in his hamstring after the final ball of the fourth over during the morning session.
The touring camp reported the 27-year-old felt some "soreness" and would spend time off the field to undergo evaluation "in the coming hours".
The final Test in this Ashes battle in Sydney starts this coming Sunday.
The English side has been without key quicks Mark Wood to a knee injury and another paceman because of a side injury during this series.
A replacement bowler was brought into the squad as cover for Wood.
The seamer had a tough time in the opening two Tests, claiming a mere three wickets.
He was left out from the previous Test, only to be brought back for the fourth Test as Archer's replacement.
The county bowler showed better form in Melbourne, taking two wickets during the host's first knock, then making 28 as a batsman as one of just three English batsmen to get into double digits.
After bowling one over in Australia's second innings, he resumed for the second day's play and dismissed the nightwatchman Scott Boland caught behind.
Unfortunately, at the end of his spell, he sent down a change of pace to the batsman and immediately felt his left hamstring.
Atkinson was recalled for the fourth Ashes Test following his omission of the third.
