How can we say that SL team is very ordinary? How can we say that our team is top class? We cant because this is U-19 cricket and people dont know much abt the players playing. You never know some of these U-19 SL players may turn out to be the next mathews, sanga or malinga.
Basically, lets not make a judgement without seeing the performance in our own eyes. Some stats will not give clear indication of a team's ability. Have we ever seen our boys bat much? Only saw glimpse of nur, asir and soumya and BPL and thats it, and they werent anything special.

Sri Lanka national team depends on Youth Cricket/ School Cricket from where the usual talents come- Mathews, Perera, Tharanga many of them are direct results of Youth Cricket. So is the case all around the world but Sri Lanka has the most strongest Youth System in place. It will be not surprising that 5-6 players from this side will go on to play for SL later. BD should take steps immediately to arrange stronger base with School Cricket other than only "Nirman"
