Small aircrafts towing political messages continued to embarrass the host country after a plane with a message in support of Balochistan flew over the Edgbaston cricket stadium during the second semi-final between England and Australia here Thursday.
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.
This was not the first time small aircrafts carrying political messages flew over the venues during the ongoing World Cup.
Such an incident happened during two group matches in Leeds.
During the India-Sri Lanka group match, a plane flew over the Headingley Cricket Ground with banners reading, "Justice for Kashmir," and "India stop genocide & free Kashmir."
