राजा दुःशासनश्वैव कृप: शारद्वतस्तथा
rājā duḥśāsanaś caiva kṛpaḥ śāradvatas tathā
Sinabi ni Sanjaya: Naroon din si Haring Duhshasana; gayundin si Kripa—anak ni Sharadvat—na kasama ring binanggit, habang nagpapatuloy ang talaan ng mga mandirigma sa madilim na pagbibilang ng digmaan.

Even brief battlefield notices carry ethical weight in the Mahabharata: the presence of figures like Duhshasana (symbolizing adharma and outrage) alongside Kripa (an elder bound by loyalty and duty) highlights how war entangles people of very different moral profiles, and how choices and allegiances shape one’s role in collective catastrophe.
Sanjaya continues reporting to Dhritarashtra, listing notable Kaurava-side warriors involved at this stage of the battle. This line names Duhshasana and Kripa (identified by the epithet ‘Sharadvat’) as part of that ongoing enumeration.
