The audience follows the time honored tradition of hushed voices. They know each shot is a matter of life and death. However, nothing can compensate for the killer, man-eating juniper hedge between the first stake and the first single wicket. This delay of game is not penalized, however, for it is merely considered an extension of the sport. There is no end to the length to which Players and onlookers will go in devising plans for the location of and retrieval of said errant ball.
Flashlights magically appear from all corners of the court.
Once this hazard is settled, the play moves on. Special light sensitive spotlights were long ago installed to aid optimum visual acuity as the dusk settled on the Players. Demands for instant replays, and questions of rules are always settled by Dad.
