Your support helps us to tell the story

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.

Two players from Sri Lanka's World Cup winning team, Sanath Jayasuirya and Aravinda De Silva, will play for a Rest of the World XI against Warwickshire in a benefit match for Dermot Reeve at Edgbaston today. Reeve, who captained Warwickshire to successive County Championships in the last two seasons, has been forced to retire because of an arthritic hip. The Rest of the World team, which will be captained by the former West Indies skipper Richie Richardson, includes former Warwickshire players Roger Twose and Brian McMillan.

Warwickshire are to send a team to the Netherlands to play a Dutch President's XI at Deventer on Tuesday.
