From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The 10-week, 73-game Indian Premier League has come to an end. The world's biggest Twenty20 cricket franchise tournament will have a first-time champion on Tuesday from the final between the Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, who finished the round-robin first and second.

The final is at Narendra Modi Stadium, the world’s largest cricket venue with capacity for 132,000 people. It is sold out.
