Does a player who has played a test get some sort of advantage over someone who hasn't?Of course. Otherwise Keegan Meth would've been a first round pick. The more you try to second guess the way it works and get too cute, the more you'll be burned. Forget about the database and pretend it's reality; that'll work best.
And are the Fc records taken into account recent also or career long,as i would imagine obtaining current FC records would be tougher?
A Badrinath vs Rahane comparison for example . Rahane averages more in FC cricket by 7 but if India was to play a series tomorrow out of both i think most would pick Badrinath.Pujara averages even lesser.
There are other batsman who would have also atleast equal shot to Rahane who average even considerably less and have not played test cricket.
