A native of Truro, Martin played his rugby for Bath and made his international appearances in the 1985 Five Nations Championship, where he was England's starting fullback in all four matches.[2] He proved at times susceptible under the high ball and made a particularly costly mistake against Wales which led to a match turning try.[3] These remained his only Test caps for England, although he did retain his place in the squad for the 1985 New Zealand tour.[4]
