Ross' emergence as a fly-half of genuine top-class ability was one of the features of Scotland's autumn internationals.
His assurance and control were key factors in the win against South Africa after he returned as joint top-scorer from the summer tour of North America.
Ross had made gradual progress through the ranks and was a key figure in the Scotland A team during their Six Nations campaign in 2002.
He made his full debut for Scotland in 2001, claiming a record 23 points in the 43-20 success against Tonga.
His fine form for Leeds Tykes and immaculate goal-kicking mean he is edging in front of Duncan Hodge and Gregor Townsend in the race for the fly-half role.
