There's a proposal for Golf Course grass at
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Golf_course#Grass__.28areas.29

For the cricket pitch, sport=cricket would seem obvious, otherwise the
proposed landuse=grass is already rendered by osmarender
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Proposed_features/Misc._urban_open_space
and you could add a further tag grass=mown/wild/whatever if you really
wanted to differentiate.
