Sean Daniel Maitland made a try-scoring debut for Scotland against England at Twickenham in the nation's opening match of the 2013 RBS 6 Nations Championship,
He went on to start every match of the 6 Nations that year and, following a sequence of fine club and country showings, was rewarded with selection for the British & Lions tour of Australia.
Since then he has become a prominent feature for the national team and scored his second international try in the 41-31 triumph over Argentina in the opening 2014 Autumn Test.
Injury curtailed his availability for the 2015 RBS 6 Nations and, in the most part, Summer Tests, however he had done enough to merit inclusion in the 31-man Scotland squad for the Rugby World Cup 2015, where he featured in four out of five games, scoring against USA and starting against Australia in the quarter-final at Twickenham.
Maitland featured in all 6 Nations tests in 2018 and is becoming one of Scotland's most consistant try-scorers, scoring 3 this campaign.
