The England cricket player showed the hands-on approach to curtailing Just Stop Oil campaigning - even if no-one in sport or security would officially recommend it.

So it seemed all too familiar when the genteel surroundings of the"Home of Cricket" were disturbed by the unfamiliar figure heading towards the square.

Even from a distance, it was clear Bairstow had picked up the protester - not missing a chance for a show of strength. Dragging him towards the boundary.Across the outfield, Ben Stokes was a less formidable barrier to the second emerging threat.But they were quickly wrestled away and the vacuums could get to work removing all trace of the protests.

Why they particularly targeted the prestige cricket series of the year - beyond securing maximum attention - was less obviously clear.The booing inside Lord's is unlikely to deter Just Stop Oil from unleashing their powder pouches at another sporting event soon. Spoiling the spectator experience - and being arrested themselves - is deemed worth it to pressure the government to stop issuing new licences for oil, gas and coal projects.But Bairstow has shown the hands-on approach to curtailing the campaigning. Even if no-one in sport or security would officially recommend it.It's almost as if they were prepared.
