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.

Young Australia maintained their unbeaten first-class record with a draw against Worcestershire in a tense finish at New Road yesterday.

Australia, set a target of 264 in 45 overs, faltered at 38 for three, but kept up the chase until Justin Langer, unbeaten on 72, was left with the tail-enders for company in the last hour.

Paul Thompson and Neil Radford worked their way through the tail, but the Australian captain remained untroubled, while Peter McIntyre kept out 21 deliveries as the visitors closed on 220 for 9.
