Ball Diameter

[AlexD]

Hello guys.
Does anyone know why was the change of the ball diameter?
I found that a reason is that it produced more visibility on television or video recording, but it just that?
The velocity or bounce didn't change?

They wanted to add more control to the game.

There is very small change on diameter so i don't think that it will differ too much
