The ball does not have to be completely broken to have the point replayed. A ball that is starting to crack will often have an erratic bounce. The referee should call for a replay only if he determines that a ball has cracked sufficiently to cause an erratic bounce. If a player suspects a ball has cracked, he should immediately toss it to the referee for inspection. The player should not push or squeeze the ball. This is the referee's responsibility, and he will make the replay call if necessary.
