can't you just create another roof in plan that is the correct width and longer than the required cricket, view it in section or elevation to get the height correct, and then attach the new roof to the main roof? Just a guess.

I think you should also be able to use the slope arrow tool if the cricket is at the edge of the roof.

Use the normal roof creation method to sketch the edge lines and draw the slope arrow at the middle of the slab to define the slope angle and the direction, define the level at the base (base offset) and at the top of the sloped slab (right click slope arrow and select the properties to define the values). You get the roof you wanted.

Read "Slope by setting slope value" in the 'Revit help' file to get the clear idea.
