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.Surrey are giving the Ireland pace bowler Mark Patterson a trial in their second XI this week. He is in the current match against Hampshire at The Oval and will also play in tomorrow's Bain Hogg eliminator against Kent. Patterson impressed the Surrey captain, Alec Stewart, in last year's Benson and Hedges Cup tie at The Oval and when the second XI coach, Tony Pigott, played against him in an MCC match he recommended the county have a closer look.
Cricket chiefs yesterday announced they will continue their investigations following a meeting with the unnamed Sussex player who tested positive for drugs. The three-man Doping Control Panel, headed by the Nottinghamshire chairman, Alan Wheelhouse, and also comprising a representative of the Cricketers' Association and a member of the disciplinary committee, met the player yesterday in Brighton. But they refused to name the player, who has tested positive twice, until their investigations into the matter are complete.
