According to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), Atkinson sustained a hamstring injury during their one-off Test against Zimbabwe, which concluded on Saturday in Nottingham. The 27-year-old, as a result, will undergo rehabilitation under the supervision of the England medical team, while no time frame was shared by the cricket board for his recovery. "England and Surrey seamer Gus Atkinson has been ruled out of the upcoming Metro Bank One-Day Internationals against the West Indies due to a right hamstring strain," the ECB said in a statement. "Atkinson sustained the injury during England's Rothesay Test victory over Zimbabwe at Trent Bridge last week. "He will now undergo a period of rehabilitation under the supervision of the England medical team." Notably, the home side decided against making any changes to their squad for the ODI series against West Indies. The aforementioned series holds significant importance for the former world champions as it will be the first assignment of newly-appointed captain Harry Brook, who succeeded Jos Buttler, stepped down from the role after England lost all three of their ICC Men's Champions Trophy 2025 group-stage matches. The ODI series will be followed by three T20Is, slated to be played on June 6, 8 and 10 respectively. England squad for West Indies ODIs: Harry Brook (Yorkshire) – Captain, Jofra Archer (Sussex), Tom Banton (Somerset), Jacob Bethell (Warwickshire), Jos Buttler (Lancashire), Brydon Carse (Durham), Ben Duckett (Nottinghamshire), Tom Hartley (Lancashire), Will Jacks (Surrey), Saqib Mahmood (Lancashire), Matthew Potts (Durham), Jamie Overton (Somerset), Adil Rashid (Yorkshire), Joe Root (Yorkshire) and Jamie Smith (Surrey).

New England white-ball captain Harry Brook dealt big blow as star bowler is ruled out of one-day series with West Indies
Gus Atkinson has been ruled out of the three-match one-day series against West Indies starting at Edgbaston on Thursday because of a right hamstring strain – but England insist he will be fit in time for next month's Test series against India. Atkinson bowled only three overs on the third and final day of the Trent Bridge Test against Zimbabwe, when he at times looked in discomfort. No replacement has been added to England's 15-man squad which will be led by new permanent white-ball captain Harry Brook, with the seam-bowling duties now in the hands of Brydon Carse, Saqib Mahmood, Jamie Overton, Matthew Potts and Luke Wood. His absence from the West Indies ODIs should at least ensure he is fresh for the first Test against India at Headingley, starting on June 20, when England will be keeping an eye on his pace. Atkinson admitted before the start of the domestic season that he was conscious he needed to keep his speeds up, having touched 90mph in his debut Test series, against West Indies last summer, but not since. Against Zimbabwe, he averaged 83.76mph – the second-quickest figure of the nine Tests he has played since that first series, but still short of the 85.89 he produced on debut at Lord's. An ECB statement said: 'He will now undergo a period of rehabilitation under the supervision of the England medical team.'

England pacer Gus Atkinson injured and will miss ODI series with the West Indies
Associated Press LONDON (AP) — England fast bowler Gus Atkinson was ruled out of the one-day international series against the West Indies with a right hamstring strain on Tuesday. Atkinson was in clear discomfort during the closing stages of the innings victory over Zimbabwe in the one-off test at Trent Bridge last weekend, bowling only three overs on the final day. After assessing the problem, England decided not to risk the 27-year-old pacer in Harry Brook's first ODI series since taking over as white-ball captain. 'He will now undergo a period of rehabilitation under the supervision of the England medical team," the England and Wales Cricket Board said of Atkinson. "No replacement will be added to the ODI squad.' Atkinson took three wickets against Zimbabwe and was not thought to be a major doubt for the upcoming test series against India beginning on June 20 at Headingley, Britain's Press Association reported. He was the most experienced member of the pace attack in Nottingham, with the likes of Mark Wood, Jofra Archer, Brydon Carse and Chris Woakes all absent on fitness grounds, and England would not want any further setbacks ahead of a signature series. The ODIs start at Edgbaston on Thursday before games at Cardiff on Sunday and the Oval next Tuesday. ___ AP cricket: in this topic
