Forcefully take charge: it should increase the score (9)
I believe the answer is:
overthrow
I believe this is a double definition.
'forcefully take charge' is the first definition.
(as in overthrowing a government)
'it should increase the score' is the second definition.
(type of run in cricket)
(Other definitions for overthrow that I've seen before include "Dethrone or oust" , "Remove forcibly from power" , "Defeat completely" , "Dethrone, cause downfall of" , "chance of another run" .)
