Hoop and circumferential both are right.

Circumferential stress is one which act on the circumference of the cylinder while the hoop is acting along the length of cylinder. The basic difference is the direction along which they are acting. Also there formula is also different in the case of thin cylinder while in case of sphere they are same.
