I can't recall it happening in the last 5 years. But then again, not many sides have been set 320 either.
Some notable sucessful chases, and or high scoring matches:
Not 320 but 260 got chased down last round (by Goodwood), and they were on track to go on and make 350 if needed (called stumps with 10 overs to go).
Last year Para Hills almost chased 310ish, finishing on high 290s from memory (vs Trinity).
Also last year I recall SPOC vs Pooraka had a run-fest, 330 vs 360 I think, albeit I think the winners batted first that game.
Looking at successful chases, last year Reynella were defeated with 280 on the board as Old Scotch went on to post 350+.
In 2019 Para Hills came close, it was a really strange one, Wordsworth made 120*, and no one else got past 35, but they still ended up making 315 in reply to Ingle Farm's 345.
I recon Hope Valley made 280 in 2017/18 and failed to defend it twice, Payneham and PAOC both chasing it down with scores around 300.
So yeah, no one has done it in the last 5 seasons so the boys may as well save themselves 5 hours on saturday and just start the day in the bar.
