8) Sialkot Stallions getting the opportunity to play CL and winning one of their games
9) The resumption of Indo-Pak ties officially announced
10) Beating Australia in a 3 match T20 international series

Negatives of 2012

1) The tour of Sri Lanka from a team perspective
2) Finishing in 8th position at the Under-19 World Cup
3) Losing 6-1 in the LOIs against England in UAE
4) Losing 3 consecutive ODI series
5) Lack of test cricket played or organised
