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.ANIL KUMBLE's leg-spin proved decisive in Wellington yesterday as India defeated New Zealand by 12 runs to take a 2-1 lead in their best-of-four one-day series. Navjot Sidhu (71 not out), Sachin Tendulkar (63) and Ajay Jadeja (56) left the hosts chasing 256 and despite a stand of 85 between Shane Thomson and Adam Parore, Kumble's 5 for 33 restricted New Zealand to 243 for 9.
