Martyn dropped from Rajasthan Royals

8220;By the time you read this I8217;ll be heading home,8221; Martyn wrote on his blog.

8220;The Rajasthan Royals squad has been trimmed to 19 players and it looks like all-rounder Shane Watson might join us next week. That8217;s the nature of professional cricket and I knew from the start what my role in the squad was and how this might happen,8221; the 38-year-old said.

Martyn played his only match in IPL III against Royal Challengers Bangalore,in which he made 19 off 24 balls and was then dropped for the next encounters.

8220;I enjoyed my IPL debut last week and even though it wasn8217;t the best result it8217;s ironic that ever I was to play it had to be against the best bowler in the world. Dale Steyn,bowling 155kmph,8221; Martyn said.

Martyn,a former Indian Cricket League ICL player,also revealed that he was thinking about coaching seriously.

8220;I have enjoyed my time as a player but going forward I8217;m looking forward to new roles around the group,like all past players,getting my notebook out,sitting in the dugout and scribbling away,8221; he said.
