tennis ball is lighter in weight as compare to cricket ball and thus has momentum much less than the momentum of cricket ball ( momentum is equal to mass ×
velocity)
body that has large momentum possesses large impact as well thus cricket ball having more momentum than tennis ball even if they move with same velocities causes more impact on the hands of person that tends to catch it and might sometimes get hurt thus it is easy to catch a tennis ball because its momentum is less n so is its impact
