Rastogi, seeded 12th, went down 2-6, 6-1, 3-6 to Martin Fischer of Austria in a boys' singles second round match.

After losing the first set tamely, the 17-year-old Rastogi fought back splendidly in the second and won it for the loss of just one game. However, he conceded several negative points in the decider which allowed the Austrian to come put trumps.
Liberhan, meanwhile, staged a strong comeback after losing the first set to oust tenth seed Korean Woong-Sun Jun 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 and make the third round.
He will take on the winner of the match between Germany's Mihail Zverev and Russia's Evgeniy Kirillov.
