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 India captain, Mohammad Azharuddin, and Ajay Jadeja hit sparkling centuries in a one-day world record stand of 275 to crush Zimbabwe by 32 runs in their triangular one-day series match in Cuttack yesterday.

Skipper Azharuddin scored an unbeaten 153 off 149 balls and Jadeja made 116 not out as India recovered from 26 for 3 to score 301 for 3 in 50 overs after being sent in to bat on a damp wicket. In reply, Zimbabwe were all out for 269. despite a defiant 102 from opener Grant Flower.
