Correct me if i am wrong,isn't the lost ball has to replaced with a similar condition ball?I mean it isn't that a 80 overs old ball will be replaced by an entirely new ball.

If, during play, the ball cannot be found or recovered or the umpires agree that it has become unfit for play through normal use, the umpires shall replace it with a ball which has had wear comparable with that which the previous ball had received before the need for its replacement. When the ball is replaced, the umpire shall inform the batters and the fielding captain.
