3 Instances when India have successfully chased targets of 190 or more in T20Is, the most by any team. South Africa is the only other team to do it more than once. India had chased 207 against Sri Lanka in Mohali in 2009 and 202 against Australia in Rajkot in 2013. This is the first time India finished a successful chase off the final ball of a match and the 15th instance overall for any team.

4 Clean sweeps in a T20I series of three or more matches; this is also only the second in a series involving two Full Member sides. The previous instance came in 2014 when Australia beat England 3-0 at home.

124* Shane Watson's score in this match, the second-highest score in T20 internationals after Aaron Finch's 156. Finch's innings came against England in Southampton in 2013. Watson's score is also the highest in T20 matches in Australia beating Luke Wright's 117 for Melbourne Stars against Hobart Hurricanes in Hobart in 2012.

1 Virat Kohli is the first batsman to score more than two fifty-plus scores in a bilateral T20I series. Kohli's tally of 199 runs in this series is also the second-highest by a batsman between dismissals in T20Is. Martin Guptill had scored 216 runs with scores of 91*, 78* and 47 in February 2012. Kohli's aggregate is also the second-highest by a batsman in bilateral T20I series. Hamilton Masakadza's 222 runs in the four-match series earlier this year against Bangladesh is the highest.

119* The highest individual score by a captain in T20Is before Watson's 124*, by Faf du Plessis against West Indies in Johannesburg in January 2015. Tillakaratne Dilshan is the only other batsman to score a century as captain in T20Is.

98 The highest score by a batsman in his first T20I as captain before Watson's 124*, by Ricky Ponting in February 2005 against New Zealand in Auckland. Another Australia captain is third on this list: Steven Smith had made 90 on his T20I captaincy debut, against England in Cardiff in 2015.

0 Centuries scored against India in T20Is before Watson's knock. The previous highest individual score against India was Chris Gayle's 98 that came in Bridgetown during the 2010 World T20.

71 Balls faced by Watson in this innings, the most by a batsman in T20Is. He surpassed Morne van Vyk's 70-ball innings of 114 not out against West Indies in Durban in 2015.

4 T20I centuries in a losing cause. Watson's score is the fourth-highest in overall T20 cricket in a defeat.

62.94 Percentage of runs scored by Watson in Australia's 5 for 197 - the fourth-highestpercentage contribution in a completed T20I innings. Kane Williamson's 70% contribution against Sri Lanka in Chittagong in 2014 is the highest.

93 Runs added by Watson and Travis Head, the highest fourth-wicket partnership for Australia in T20Is. The pair went past an unbeaten 84-run stand shared by Adam Voges and David Warner against Sri Lanka in Sydney in 2013.

3 Number of Indians who have aggregated 1000 or more runs in T20Is. Rohit Sharma is the latest on the list behind Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina.

24 Runs scored off a Shaun Tait over [third of the innings], the third-most expensive over against India. The most expensive one was bowled by Stuart Broad, who conceded 36 in Durban[19th over of the innings] in the 2007 World T20, followed by Rory Kleinveldt's 25-run over in Gros Islet [18th over] in the 2010 World T20.

FOUNDER/CO-FOUNDER

Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences

Carl Linnaeus, often known by the Latin form of his name as Carolus Linnaeus, is the father of modern biological classification systems. Born into a small parsonage in the southern tip of his country at the dawn of the Renaissance, Carl was given a thorough home school education by his father. Later, Carl would have his curiosity about the natural world piqued during lengthy childhood trips and explorations. Parleying his intellectual curiosity into formal studies, Linnaeus enrolled in a number of universities to study under masters in the field. By the time he graduated, Linnaeus had become an expert biologist, and was asked to give lectures on the subject. Linnaeus then received sponsorship to conduct numerous field studies where hundreds, if not thousands, of species of flora and fauna were identified, labeled and catalogued. The eminent biologist continued his work until he finally published a series of scientific masterpieces, outlaying his system for dividing both the animal and plant kingdoms into a nested series of categories and sub-categories. Although it has been modified since its first iteration, the classification system invented by Linnaeus still forms the backbone of all modern biological sciences today. Linnaeus continued a long and distinguished career as a researcher, academic and professor until his death at an advanced age from natural causes

Childhood & Early Life

Carl Linnaeus was born on May 23, 1707 in Rashult, part of the Stenbrohuit Parish in Sweden. His father was Nils Ingermarsson Linnaeus and his mother was Christina Brodersonia.
Nils was an amateur botanist when not fulfilling his duties as a Lutheran minister and curate in southern Sweden. Carl eventually had three younger sisters and a brother. He learned a variety of advanced subjects from home school courses administered by his father and some hired tutors.

Career

By age 17, Linnaeus had become well-versed in all of the existing botanical literature. That same year, he entered the ‘Vaxjo Katedralskola’ (Cathedral School) where he studied advanced topics such as mathematics, theology, Greek and Hebrew, a series of courses used for boys interested in joining the priesthood.
In 1721, he enrolled in the ‘University of Lund’ to study botany full-time. Following his mentor Johan Rothman's guidance, Linnaeus began to learn to classify plants.
In 1728, he transferred to ‘Uppsala University’ to continue to study both medicine and botany. While there, he made a strong connection with Olof Celsius, who would later invent the popular temperature scale used around the world today.
Linnaeus wrote his first master thesis on plant sexual reproduction in 1728. A year later, he was invited to give lectures on the paper to hundreds of people.
In 1732, he was awarded a large grant from the ‘Royal Swedish Society of Sciences’ to pay for an extensive journey through northern Sweden in search of new plants, animals and mineral deposits. During the expedition, he discovered a small flower, ‘Linnaea borealis’, which would later be named in his honor.
In 1734, he led an expedition of students to Dalarna, to catalog and possibly discover new mineral deposits.
In 1735, Linnaeus traveled to the Netherlands where he was awarded a doctoral degree in medicine from the University of Harderwijk. Later in the same year, this renowned scientist published his masterpiece 'Systema Naturaea', a detailed new system for classifying plants.
In 1737, he published the results of his long journey through the Scandinavian tundra in a book entitled 'Flora Lapponica', which classified over 534 different species of flora in the region. The same year, Carolus published 'Genera Plantarum', in which he described over 935 different genera of plants.
Also in 1737, he published 'Hortus Cliffortianus', an extensive catalog of the plants in the herbarium and botanical garden in the city of Hartekampf. The following year, he returned to Sweden and became a physician.
In 1741, he was appointed to become a professor of Medicine at ‘Uppsala University’. Ten days after receiving the new job, he led a team of university students on an expedition to discover medicinal plants. Over 100 previously undiscovered plants were catalogued.
In 1745, Linnaeus published two books: 'Floria Suecica' and 'Fauna Suecica' about the totality of natural life in Sweden.
In 1750, he became the rector of ‘Uppsala University’. He would hold the position for the next 22 years.

Major Works

First printed in 1735, the book 'Systema Naturae' was the complete description of how Linnaeus had classified more than 7,000 species of plants and 4,000 species of animals. The classification system for plants and animals devised by Linnaeus forms the backbone of all modern biological sciences.

Personal Life & Legacy

Carl Linnaeus married Sara Elisabeth Moraea on June 26, 1739. Together, they had seven children, six of which survived infancy.
Linnaeus passed away on January 10, 1778 after a series of paralyzing strokes. He was interred at the Uppsala Cathedral.

Trivia

When Carl's father Nils was accepted to the University of Lund, the school required him to choose a family name. He picked Linnaeus, the Latin name of the linden/lime tree that also grows in Sweden.
As a child, Carl would often get upset. His parents and friends knew that if they gave Carl a flower, he would soon calm down.
