"Oh greatest among Brahmins (Dwijas)!
Let me highlight now for completion sake, the great warriors on our side though
you know them."
Duryodhana while enumerating the
warriors on the Pandavas side actually was expressing his concerns that winning
the war would be difficult as long as these warriors who are maharathas and
some equal to Bheema and Arjuna. Then he realizes that this would cast a
negative effect on his army and warriors. So he tells to Dronacharya that he
has not enumerated the warriors on our side as we all know them but he would
still tell their names briefly for completion sake. By saying so he is trying
to hide his own anxiety and to keep the spirits high of other warriors of his
army.
