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.

Habib was 48 not out with Leicestershire on 132 for 6 when play was abandoned for the day an hour after the tea interval. Essex had been bowled out for 297 on the first day.

Glamorgan paceman Andrew Davies's two quick Bangladesh A wickets were the highlight of an abbreviated second day at Abergavenny yesterday.

Only 10.1 overs were possible in 45 minutes after lunch in between some heavy showers in south Wales. Replying to Glamorgan's 380, Bangladesh A were 54 for 2 before rain stopped play for the day.
