Free Palestine message made it to the Narendra Modi Stadium during the India vs Australia ICC World Cup 2023 final match on Sunday.
A pitch invader sporting a mask with the Palestine flag colours and a plea to stop the bombing in Gaza on his shirt entered the field, halting the match for a few minutes.
The incident occurred during the 14th over of the Indian batting innings.
However, broadcasters consciously refrained from showing the clip, so he was not spotted on TV. Also, no mention of it was made during the on-air commentary
The images that are currently making rounds on social media show the man approaching Virat Kohli on the field and also attempting to hug the batter.
