Cross retired from professional rugby at the end of the 2015/16 season in order to take up his medical career.
Cross was picked for the Scotland team to participate in the 2010 Six Nations Championship. The match he played in his debut against Wales was cut short when he was sent off for an air-borne tackle against full back Lee Byrne.

While he was a part of the Scotland setup, which included being picked for the winning Tour of Argentina in 2010 he didn’t increase his number of caps for the rest of 2010.
