New South Wales: Australia pacer Josh Hazlewood suffered yet another injury setback as he sustained a "low-grade" Achilles injury during his rehabilitation from a lingering hamstring injury.

Hazlewood's fresh injury blow has cast fresh doubt over his availability for the remainder of the Ashes series. Cricket Australia have released an official update on the bowler's recovery during Day 2 play of the ongoing day-night Test at the Gabba.

"Josh Hazlewood reported achilles soreness this week during his rehabilitation from recent hamstring injury. It is a low-grade issue, and he is expected to recommence running and bowling next week," CA said in a statement.
