Answer:
Tennis ball is lighter (less mass) than a cricket ball. Tennis ball moving with same speed has less momentum (mass × velocity) than a cricket ball. It is easier to stop tennis ball having less momentum.

Explanation:
The mass of a moving tennis ball is less than that of a cricket ball moving at the same velocity. Thus the tennis ball has less momentum than the cricket ball, because of which it is easier to stop a tennis ball than a cricket ball moving with the same velocity.
