The streets of Brisbane have been flooded with protesters calling for change of the Australia Day date and the second day of Australia's Test against the West Indies was briefly disrupted by demonstrators.
A combination of around 8000 Invasion Day and pro-Palestine protesters rallied through Brisbane City on Friday brandishing placards that read "No pride in genocide" and "Always was, always will be".
Chants of "What do we want? Justice. When do we want it? Now," and "No justice no peace, no racist police" could be heard as demonstrators descended on Queens Gardens on Friday morning before walking over the Victoria Bridge to West End.
Several hours of speeches were made by organisers, members of the Indigenous community and youths, while chants of "free Palestine" rang out in the masses.
Police said no incidents were recorded at the main demonstration.
Demonstrators rallied in Lions Park outside the Gabba Stadium on Friday before the second day's play began.
Two demonstrators were handcuffed and detained by police, with the stadium going into a temporary lockdown after protesters entered the venue.
Cricket Australia chief executive Nick Hockley told SEN Radio there was a small delay as police ensured everything was safe and secure.
A large police presence stood in front of the western entrance as fans were made to wait for entry into the stadium.
Both teams arrived earlier than scheduled to avoid the disruptions.
Play was then halted in the first over of play when a man ran onto the field with an Indigenous flag and lay on the turf.
