Pitch invader who collided with Jonny Bairstow found guilty of aggravated trespass

A YouTube prankster who collided with England cricketer Jonny Bairstow after invading the pitch at The Oval has been found guilty of aggravated trespass.

Daniel Jarvis, 34, collided with the 32-year-old batsman at the non-striker's end after sprinting on to the field to bowl at Ollie Pope, 24, on day two of the fourth Test against India. Jarvis, who has a YouTube account with more than 170,000 subscribers, was arrested over the stunt on September 3 last year, and later charged with aggravated trespass.

At Croydon Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, District Judge Daniel Benjamin said: "The issue in the case is straight forward, namely whether he intended to disrupt the Test match." He concluded this was Jarvis's intention, adding: "I find Mr Jarvis guilty of aggravated trespass."
