A summary of notable cricketers who passed away during 2019. I should have identified all Test players, besides other players and officials who were reasonably well known. Information was taken from Cricinfo and Cricketarchive.

Cricket Obituaries-2018
Here is a list of prominent cricketers who passed away in 2018. Apart from male Test players who are covered in full, other categories covered here would be female international players, ODI and T20I players, Test umpires, administrators and major domestic players. The last two categories are subjective, depending largely on whether the compiler has heard of them earlier.
This is delayed until the end of September 2019 as some deaths are reported late-sometimes even years later for lesser-known players.
Information is summarized from the obituaries in Cricinfo and Cricketarchive.
Here is a note about Bevan Congdon: https://abn397.wordpress.com/2018/02/13/bevan-congdon-r-i-p-and-his-indian-connection/
Cricketer’s deaths in 2016 (Revised in June 2018)
This covers various people connected with cricket who passed away in the calendar year 2016. It includes all Test players and several other categories such as Test umpires, prominent journalists and administrators, prominent female cricketers and better-known domestic cricketers (mainly from India and England). Some subjectivity is involved here.
This had earlier appeared in early 2017. It has been revised in June 2018 with additional information.
