In the boys' doubles first round, Arnav Paparkar and his Thai partner Kunanan Pantaratorn lost 4-6, 2-6 to Kazakhstan's Damir Zhalgasbay and American Safir Azam in 58 mins.
Paparkar had also lost in his boys' singles first round match. Maaya is yet to open her girls' doubles campaign. She has partnered with Ukraine's Antonina Sushkova. They are up against fifth Czech team of Jana Kovackova and Katerina Zajickova.
