Under-pressure England man Nick Compton was out for 19 and Jonny Bairstow was out for 32 before the close as the hosts lost three wickets for five runs in reply, but they eventually closed day three on 109-4.
Victory in this match will give England the series 3-0 following victories in the previous Tests at Headingley and Chester-le-Street.
