let the COM of the sphere has a velocity V=Rω, where ω is the angular velocity of sphere wrt the COM.Let the angular velocity of the sphere wrt the centre of the cylinder be W then V=(5R-R)W
W=ω/4
from conservation of energy
mg(5R-R)(1-cosθ)+(1/2)mV^2+(1/2)Iω^2=constant
differentiating the above equation wrt time we get( α/θ)=5g/28R
therefore time period =2π(k)^1/2,where k=28R/5g
