      Yup - Under Rule 5.3

      "If a ball breaks into pieces as a result of a stroke, the stroke is cancelled and the player must play a ball without penalty as nearly as possible at the spot from which the original ball was played (see Rule 20-5)."

        It'd be a pretty harsh marker who'd try to have you continue with the old ball, claiming that the larger half was still "fit for play......."

        Cheers
