The visitors dismissed the hosts for 249 for a slender first innings lead of 17, before slumping to 52 for three second time around.
However, they were rescued by a fourth-wicket stand of 51 between Shivnarine Chanderpaul (23 not out) and Steven Croft (38no).
The visitors reached the game’s midway mark on 103 for three having again suffered at the hands of their first innings nemesis, Darren Stevens – who took two wickets for 38 runs – and Simon Cook (one for 26).
