Watch: Jarvo 69 returns, this time with the bat

by Wisden Staff 2 minute read

Watch: A pitch invader, Jarvo, who had pretended to be India’s fielder at the start of the second session on day three at Lord’s, made an appearance at Leeds as well after the dismissal of Rohit Sharma on Friday.

Padded and with a bat in hand, the supporter, who was clad in all-whites with ‘Jarvo 69’ inscribed on his India jersey, got ready to take strike after Ollie Robinson sent back Rohit for 59 off 156 deliveries in the 48th over of the third innings. Coming out to bat with a mask, it was not long before Jarvo was frisked out of the ground despite his firm resistance.

Unlike the last game, where his appearance had amused Mohammed Siraj as Jarvo was being dragged out by the steward, his presence did not cause laughter among the Indian camp as Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara refused to be distracted by the events as they still trailed England by 238 runs after Rohit’s dismissal.
