The match between India and Sri Lanka was played at Leeds yesterday in the ICC World Cup-2019. The match in which India won in a one-sided manner. However, during this time an airplane passed over The Headingley Stadium, in which a banner was hanging and written on that banner, 'Justice for Kashmir'. Then another plane with another banner on it wrote, "Stop the genocide and liberate Kashmir". Now it has sparked a new debate on social media.

The ICC further said that after the earlier incident, West Yorkshire Police had assured us that such things would not happen again. So it has happened again and we are disappointed," he said, referring to the fact that it had earlier pulled out an airplane from the top of the stadium in a match between Pakistan and Afghanistan at the same stadium on June 29, hanging a banner of the slogan of justice for Balochistan.
