Solution

The correct options are
A Rolling friction
C Gravitational force
D Air drag
As the ball is rolling so rolling friction is acting on the ball. It is not sliding so sliding friction is not acting. On any object on the earth the gravitational force of earth is always acting. Also the ball is with huge size and it is moving. So we cannot neglect the air drag on it.
