The ICC ODI World Cup 2023 final between India and Australia at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium was briefly interrupted when a pitch invader stormed into the middle and hugged star Indian batter Virat Kohli.
The incident garnered attention also for the attire the man donned while entering the field. Images of the incident that went viral on the internet showed the invader holding onto a rainbow flag. He donned a T-shirt that read "STOP BOMBING PALESTINE" in the front and "Free Palestine" in the back.
The man had covered his face with a mask that resembled the Palestinian national flag.
