वार्धक्षेमिर्महाराज रथो मम महान्मतः । चित्रायुधश्च नृपतिर्मतो मे रथसत्तमः । स हि संग्रामशोभी च भक्तश्चापि किरीटिनः॥५-१६८-१६॥
O great king, Vārdhakṣemi is, in my view, a distinguished chariot-warrior. The king Citrāyudha too is regarded by me as an excellent chariot-warrior; he shines in campaigns and is also devoted to Kirīṭin (Arjuna).

Cekitāna and Satyadhṛti—these two are great chariot-warriors on the Pāṇḍavas’ side. In my judgment, these “tigers among men” are eminent rathins.

सेनाबिन्दुश्च राजेन्द्र क्रोधहन्ता च नामतः । यः समो वासुदेवेन भीमसेनेन चाभिभूः । स योत्स्यतीह विक्रम्य समरे तव सैनिकैः॥५-१६८-१९॥
O king, Senābindu—also known by the name Krodhahantā—is regarded as comparable to Vāsudeva and to Bhīmasena in prowess. Here he will, with bold initiative, engage your forces in battle.

मां द्रोणं च कृपं चैव यथा संमन्यते भवान् । तथा स समरश्लाघी मन्तव्यो रथसत्तमः॥५-१६८-२०॥
In the same way that you hold me, Droṇa, and Kṛpa in esteem, so too that battle-renowned one should be regarded as a foremost chariot-warrior.
