Very true. The pick of the lot for me is Lahiru Thirimanne. Very calm, mature batsman. But has already played 71 ODI's and still averages less than 30.
One observation abt Sri Lankan cricketers is they mature at a slightly older age. Dilshan for example was in and out till his early 30's, only after he reached a certain age he cemented his place. Sanga only debuted at around 24-25.
