A small plane has circled the semifinal between Australia and England five times while trailing a protest banner in the skies of Birmingham.

The banner read, “World must speak up for Balochistan,” a province in Pakistan.

Play continued as normal.

A plane flew political banners over two group matches in Leeds.

During the India-Sri Lanka match, a plane towed banners reading, “Justice for Kashmir,” and “India stop genocide & free Kashmir.” Before that, during the Pakistan-Afghanistan match, a banner was towed also about Balochistan.
