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.

THE last-wicket pair, Simon Myles and Keith Arnold, blocked four overs to earn the Minor Counties a draw against the South Africans at Torquay yesterday.

The Minor Counties were set 270 to win in 52 overs when Kepler Wessels, the South African captain, declared shortly after lunch.

They made a brisk start, reaching 61 in 21 overs, before things started to go wrong. Russell Evans was run out for 30, then Steve Dean was caught in the deep. Tim Shaw and Pat Symcox, aided by three run outs, then worked their way through the middle order.
