Sañjaya berkata: Dalam apa jua peperangan yang Karṇa tempuh bersama putera-putera Pāṇḍu, pada setiap kali di medan laga, para Pāṇḍava mengatasi Karṇa.

Educational Q&A
Martial reputation is secondary to demonstrated conduct and outcomes in dharmic struggle; Sañjaya’s report emphasizes that Karṇa, despite fame, was repeatedly checked by the Pāṇḍavas, reminding the listener that power is not absolute and results unfold under larger moral and karmic conditions.
Sañjaya, narrating events to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, summarizes Karṇa’s prior encounters with the Pāṇḍavas and states that in each such battle on the field, the Pāṇḍavas were the victors over Karṇa.
