You can plot the control net surrounding the cylinder using "plot3" function itself.
Here's the code for your reference:
% Define the cylinder parameters
outerRadius = 1;
innerRadius = 0.5;
height = 2;
% Define the number of control points in each direction
numPointsX = 10;
numPointsY = 10;
% Generate the control net coordinates
theta = linspace(0, 2*pi, numPointsX);
z = linspace(0, height, numPointsY);
[Theta, Z] = meshgrid(theta, z);
X = outerRadius * cos(Theta);
Y = outerRadius * sin(Theta);
% Plot the control net
figure;
plot3(X, Y, Z, 'b.'); % Plot control points
hold on;
mesh(X, Y, Z); % Plot mesh connecting control points
% Draw the outer cylinder
[Xcyl, Ycyl, Zcyl] = cylinder(outerRadius, numPointsX);
Zcyl = Zcyl * height;
surf(Xcyl, Ycyl, Zcyl, 'FaceAlpha', 0.5, 'EdgeColor', 'none', 'FaceColor', 'r');
% Draw the inner cylinder
[Xcyl_inner, Ycyl_inner, Zcyl_inner] = cylinder(innerRadius, numPointsX);
Zcyl_inner = Zcyl_inner * height;
surf(Xcyl_inner, Ycyl_inner, Zcyl_inner, 'FaceAlpha', 0.5, 'EdgeColor', 'none', 'FaceColor', 'g');
xlabel('X');
ylabel('Y');
zlabel('Z');
title('Control Net of Cylinder with Inner Cylinder');
axis equal;
Output:

Hope this helps!
