The [[Gujarat Lions]] (often abbreviated as GL) was a franchise [[cricket]] team based in [[Rajkot]], [[Gujarat]], that competed in the [[Indian Premier League]] (IPL) in [[Gujarat Lions in 2016|2016]] and [[Gujarat Lions in 2016|2017]]. The team was owned by [[Intex Technologies]], who won the bid in 2016, after two teams were suspended following a [[2013 Indian Premier League spot-fixing and betting case|spot-fixing scandal]].<ref>{{Cite news|last=Lokapally|first=Vijay|date=2015-12-08|title=Pune, Rajkot join the IPL bandwagon|language=en-IN|work=The Hindu|url=https://www.thehindu.com/sport/cricket/Pune-Rajkot-join-the-IPL-bandwagon/article10040319.ece|access-date=2021-06-08|issn=0971-751X}}</ref>

[[Dhawal Kulkarni]] has taken the most [[wicket]]s for GL, with 21 wickets to his name.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Records / Gujarat Lions / Twenty20 Matches / Most Wickets|url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?class=6&id=5845&type=team|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210608091435/https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?class=6;id=5845;type=team|archive-date=2021-06-08|access-date=2021-06-08|work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> The best [[Bowling analysis|bowling figures]] belong to [[Andrew Tye]], with 5/17.

The team has been captained by Raina for all of its matches except one, during which [[Brendon McCullum]] was the captain. [[Dinesh Karthik]] has been the only wicket keeper for GL, with 19 [[Caught|catches]] and 3 [[Stumped|stumpings]].
