This line should be enough since from the man page:
-a, --archive
This is equivalent to -rlptg. It is a quick way of
saying you want recursion and want to preserve
everything.
Note: if the user launching rsync is root then the
-o (preserve uid) and -D (preserve devices) options
are also implied.
Also, you probably don't want to use the verbose option if running from
cron unless you are redirecting output.
