One of the advantages of a phpBB board is that you can create sub-forums.
Would you consider having separate sections within the cricket forum?
For example, the sub-divisions could be....
1) International Cricket
2) Live Matches
3) Domestic Cricket
4) 20/20 cricket

Just a suggestion....

You can take it or leave it.
