Has anyone wondered how a tennis ball coloured ball might fare?

Seems to work just fine for both day & night tennis matches, when players are wearing both white & coloured clothes.

Tennis ball travels faster than a cricket ball as well, so it passes that test at least, & quite often tennis games will take place during changeable light conditions.

Broadcasters will start paying less fees for series with D/N Tests in it and once that happens a halt will be called, if not before, and they probably won't return until they make alterations to the ball etc.
