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.

Sri Lanka A beat the England Lions by four wickets in Colombo yesterday to level the five-game one-day series at 2-2.

The Lions had a good start as Samit Patel (50) and Alex Hales (62) put on 85 for the first wicket, but the rest offered little as they were all out for 204.

Sri Lanka never really looked in trouble as they chased down the total with 47 balls to spare, Dimuth Karunaratne top-scoring for the hosts with 45.
