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.As Indian cricket fans come to terms with life without batting great Sachin Tendulkar, an Indian schoolboy has run up a mammoth individual score of 546 off 330 balls in the same Mumbai tournament that first propelled the “Little Master” into the limelight 25 years ago.
Prithvi Shaw, 14, slammed 85 fours and five sixes in his huge knock while turning out for Rizvi Springfield School in the Harris Shield tournament, according to The Times of India.
Shaw figured in a 619-run partnership with Satyalakshya Jain (164) as his side amassed a total of 991.
Tendulkar, the most prolific batsman in international cricket, who retired last week, scored 326 in the same school tournament in 1988.
