Ashes: Atkinson Ruled Out Of SCG Test With Hamstring Injury

By IANS News December 29, 2025 • 09:32 AM View: 395

Boxing Day Test: England have suffered a blow with news that fast bowler Gus Atkinson will miss the final Test of the Ashes series at the SCG due to injury.

Atkinson hurt his left hamstring when bowling on the second day of the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne and failed to return to the field. Other fast bowlers stepped up in his absence, bowling out Australia for 132 in the second innings to set up a four-wicket victory, their first overseas Ashes Test win since January 2011.

"England seamer Gus Atkinson has been ruled out for the remainder of the Ashes tour after scans confirmed he has sustained a left hamstring injury," England Cricket said in a statement.
