Add custom view to the right of toolbar

Question

I am trying to achieve this(A timer in toolbar with red background):

I am trying to add customView in toolbar. It always end's up being on extreme left just beside the back arrow. Like the text YP in image below is a custom Textview added to toolbar..

The code for toolbar:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/base_activity_toolbar"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
    android:elevation="4dp"
    android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
    android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />

The code for adding the layout:

    LayoutInflater mInflater= LayoutInflater.from(context);
    View mCustomView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.textview, null);
    toolbar.addView(mCustomView);

This is the layout I am adding right now for testing:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:orientation="horizontal"
              android:layout_width="wrap_content"
              android:gravity="end"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
              android:text="yp"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</LinearLayout>

I am missing something majorly, could not figure out. Pulling my hairs out.

I just set layout_gravity to the rightand it worked

  <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="?android:actionBarSize"
    app:title="NEW REQUESTS"
  >
    <TextView
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:text="blahblah"
      android:layout_gravity="right"  
      />
  </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
