Just Stop Oil protesters stopped the second Ashes Test with England wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow forced to take matters into his own hands.
Ahead of the second over of the morning session at Lord’s, two Just Stop Oil protesters raced onto the pitch.
Bairstow immediately took matters into his own hands by picking up one of the protesters and carrying them off the pitch.
The other Just Stop Oil protester was thwarted by security staff before being taken away from the grounds.
Bairstow had to briefly leave the field to change his top, after it was covered in orange powder, before returning ahead of Broad starting his spell from the Nursery End.
