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.Despite sunny skies, a sodden outfield caused another day's play to be the abandoned in the fourth Test between the West Indies and India yesterday. Heavy rain on Friday and Saturday had caused the opening two days of the match to be abandoned.
The Recreation Ground was bathed in sunshine, but a few large sections on the eastern side of the ground were still too wet or muddy to play. The umpires Steve Bucknor, of Jamaica, and B C Cooray, of Sri Lanka, inspected the ground foru times before announcing in mid-afternoon that no play would be possible.
The West Indies are 1-0 up in the five-match series after their 38-run victory in Bridgetown, Barbados last Monday.
