you also are not setting 'ICMP Extension Structure'. From:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8335

   o  ICMP Extension Structure: The ICMP Extension Structure identifies
      the probed interface.

   Section 7 of [RFC4884] defines the ICMP Extension Structure.  As per
   RFC 4884, the Extension Structure contains exactly one Extension
   Header followed by one or more objects.  When applied to the ICMP
   Extended Echo Request message, the ICMP Extension Structure MUST
   contain exactly one instance of the Interface Identification Object
   (see Section 2.1).
