Solved this.

Inflated the TextView with pin background and dynamically set the position into TextView.

public Drawable createFromView(int positionNumber)
{
    LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE); 
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.drawable.pin_icon, null, false);
    TextView tv = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.pin_background);
    tv.setText("     "+ (positionNumber+1) );   // +1 since position is starting from 0
    tv.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
    tv.layout(0, 0, 50, 50);
    tv.buildDrawingCache();
    Bitmap b = Bitmap.createBitmap(tv.getDrawingCache());
    tv.setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);
    Drawable d = new BitmapDrawable(b);
    return d;
}
