Seamer Gus Atkinson Adds to England's Injury Concerns.
'Major setback' for the English camp after Atkinson leaves the field suffering a hamstring problem.
The pace bowler further complicated the injury concerns plaguing England after leaving the ground on the second morning of the Boxing Day Test against Australia.
The right-arm seamer pulled up with his left leg after the final ball that he bowled during the morning session.
The England team reported the 27-year-old felt some "soreness" and required time on the sidelines to undergo evaluation "during the day".
The concluding match of the tour in Sydney gets underway on Sunday, 4 January.
England have already lost key quicks Mark Wood to a knee injury and another paceman with an abdominal strain on this Ashes tour.
Matthew Fisher was called up as injury reinforcement.
Atkinson struggled in the opening two Tests, taking just a handful of scalps.
He was omitted for the Adelaide match, then recalled for the Boxing Day match as Archer's replacement.
Surrey's Atkinson showed better form in Melbourne, taking two wickets during the host's first knock, and scoring 28 runs with the bat being one of only three English batsmen to get into double digits.
Post a single over late on the first day, he came back the next day and dismissed the nightwatchman taken by the wicketkeeper.
However, on the final ball of that over, he delivered a change of pace to Travis Head and immediately felt his left hamstring.
Atkinson was brought back for the Melbourne match following his omission of the third.
