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.

Leicestershire were defeated for the first time in this year’s Rothesay County Championship after losing by an innings and 127 runs to Middlesex.

The Division Two leaders were bowled out for 205 in the first innings, Naavya Sharma’s four for 43 having done the damage, and Middlesex enforced the follow-on.

Noah Cornwell then took three for 60 in the second innings, including the final wicket of Sam Wood to end the match, as Leicestershire tumbled to 202 all out with Logan van Beek’s unbeaten 36 their top score.
