Using the ongoing World Cup as a platform to spread political messages continued on Thursday as a plane with the message "WORLD MUST SPEAK UP FOR BALOCHISTAN" was flown over the Edgbaston Cricket Stadium again and again during the second semifinal between England and Australia.

It was followed by one which said "HELP END DISAPPEARANCE IN PAKISTAN". But the International Cricket Council (ICC) is looking to ensure that the air space over Lord's during the final on July 14 becomes an air exclusion zone.
