@m_lohar you should be on Splunk 6.4 or higher to see trend and saprkline in Single Value. Ideally all you need is a search query with timechart command. If you are on Splunk 6.3 or lower trend and sparklines will not be available.

Transforming command with sparkline is used to show sparkline in table not in Single Value.
