These are OK:

1a. We are much stronger than them/they in cricket.

1b. They are much stronger than us/we in cricket.

Is there a word missing in your original gapped sentence? Should it read "2. __ all went with __"? If so, these are OK:

2a. We all went with them/him/her.

2b. They all went with us/him/her.

Is there a word missing in your original gapped sentence? Should it read "3. __ is cleverer than all of __.? If so, these are OK:

3a. He/She is cleverer than all of us/them/you.

3b. He/She is cleverer than all of us/them/you.
