What about Indian Cricketer Raman Lamba who died under similar circumstances in 1998?!

Or does he not count because he was not white!

YOu mean to say that unfortunately if some Ranji cricketer called Chittaranjan Pandey or Palanisami ranagarajan were to get hit by a ball and die during a first class match in Jharkhand then all Australian media and UK Media would be covering it day and night and Australian cricket clubs at all levels including test players would be mourning the loss of Pandeyji or rangarajan ji?

It will be reported but not to the extent done now. But do remember Phil Hughes was already a established player known across the cricketing world.
