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.Lancashire batsman Jordan Clark has become the fifth player in professional cricket to hit six sixes in one over. Clark, 22, achieved the feat in a second XI game against Yorkshire at Scarborough.
Herchelle Gibbs and Yuvraj Singh most recently hit six sixes in an over in 2007, with the latter the first in a Twenty20 match. West Indies legend Sir Garfield Sobers was the first to do it in 1968. Ravi Shastri matched him in 1984.
