There's no officially recommended minimum cage size, personally I prefer to go for something bigger, mostly around 80x50cm for my dwarf hams but if your hams are happy then that may just be fine for them.
I wouldn't recommend using the ball for dwarf hams though, they can too easily be injured & if they are having time in a playpen then there's no benefit to be gained from the ball really.
