I actually had this question because Uttara kumar and his brother accompanied Virat naresh in draupadi swayamwar I had this doubt weather abhi and uttarkumar were of same age group

Arjun was quite succesfull during Virata war...He had a fair idea about the strength of the warriors he was going to face and he acted accordingly.I strongly believe that more than physical strength and abilities mental preparation is also important to win over your enemies..Kauravas did the mistake.Their calculations on the strength of opponents completely went wrong, and they had to pay for that.

😆 Yes, Kuru Army expected the Matsya Army - around eight thousand cars, a thousand elephants and sixty thousand horses.

... Instead they got a scared boy and a Man dressed in woman's clothes with Gandiva in his hands and holding the conchshell Devdutta.🤣

Duryodhana's spies had told him that Keechak was apparently killed by Gandharva force at night.

Susarman, karn, Duryodhana agreed that they should all attack on Matsya.

They planned that king Susarman would attack first, and the next day they will come to Matsya after him.

Susarman attacked after Pandavas 13 years exile was over.

We will, with all the Kauravas go to the appointed place. Let also the mighty warrior, king Susarman, accompanied by a sufficient force with vehicles and animals, set out with the Trigartas for the dominions of Matsyas. And let Susarman proceed first, carefully concealing his intention. Following in their wake, we will set out the day after in close array, for the prosperous dominions of king Matsya. Let the Trigartas, however, suddenly repair to the city of Virata, and coming upon the cowherds, seize that immense wealth (of kine). We also marching in two divisions, will seize thousands of excellent kine furnished with auspicious marks.'

Then Only the Four Pandavas ( without Arjuna) joined the Matsya force for King Virata.Bhima wanted to uproot a tree and use it as a weapon buy Yudhishtira stopped him.

The Pandavas took care of the first batch

the mighty sons of Pandu, endued with modesty and observant of vows and relying on the might of their own arms, after having vanquished Susarman, and rescued the kine as well as other kinds of wealth and having thus dispelled Virata's anxiety, stood together before that monarch. And Bhimasena then said, 'This wretch given to wicked deeds doth not deserve to escape me with life. But what can I do? The king is so lenient!' And then taking Susarman by the neck as he was lying on the ground insensible and covered with dust, and binding him fast, Pritha's son Vrikodara placed him on his car, and went to where Yudhishthira was staying in the midst of the field. And Bhima then showed Susarman unto the monarch. And beholding Susarman in that plight, that tiger among men king Yudhishthira smilingly addressed Bhima--that ornament of battle,--saying, 'Let this worst of men be set free.' Thus addressed, Bhima spoke unto the mighty Susarman, saying, 'If, O wretch, thou wishest to live, listen to those words of mine. Thou must say in every court and assembly of men,--I am a slave. On this condition only I will grant thee thy life. Verily, this is the law about the vanquished.'

King Virata had a celebration and the Four Pandavas were out of the Kingdom with him.

Then Duryodhana entered with his army ...

Uttara boasted in front of girls that he will take care of them ... Arjuna agreed to be his Charioteer.

Kuru Army attacked, Arjuna came with his charioteer Prince Uttara ...

And the rest is history ... 🤣

They were expecting an army, or perhaps wanted to take the cattle and just go away ...

Instead they got a long haired and Gandiva- wielding Arjuna and a scared kiddo.

That totally ruined there plan ... whatever it was!

As I said above, The four Pandavas had taken care of Susarman's Army which was to be followed by the Kuru Army.

After that the King was celebrating with he four Pandavas and army outside the city.

Uttara Kumar decided to go alone and take care of the Kuru Army and that Arjuna.😆

So Brihannala accompanied him as the charioteer.

In the way, the role changed and Prince Uttara became the charioteer and Arjuna dropped his jewelry, wore his warrior gloves, blew his Devdutta, twanged the strings of Gandiva ..

And Lo ... Bhishma and Drona start praising how that can only be Arjuna, how they are already defeated.

Ashwatthama reminds the Chandal Chaukadi about their misdeeds, cheating the Pandavas, insulting Draupadi and says that Arjuna is coming for them now.🤣

It was weird listening to Ashwatthama say nice things, but he was not a bad person.

Starbharat Black -Washed him.😆

Bheem yuddhisthir nakul and sahadev followed Virata . susharma apparently abducted the virata king in his car when yuddhi asks Bheem to rescue him.Bheem approached susharman and had a one on one (like hidimb in star bharat) as he lifted him by his hair and that left him in a bizarre and he fled away . Then bheem killed around 7000 warriors and nakul killed 700 warriors.

Matsya king took his army along with YBNS to conquer susharma...

Yeah ,Arjun was merely a man with Gandiv..😛

We cant compare his strength with that of the matsya army and their king..😆Still he managed to defeat Bheeshma,Drona and Karna who were accompanied by their army..Its quite reasonable..

But later in Kurukshetra war he had to put forward Shikhandi to defeat his Pitamah.He had to seek help of his honest brother to mouth such a fatal lie..He had to use the chance when,his opponent was helpless without his weapon..Poor Arjun..He might have wasted his whole energy ,fighting them,during Virata war..

ahh dude you should put this in the twitter thread not here 😆

Who knows?? Perhaps the cvs have decided that Karnas kavach kundal will be taken from him during Virat yuddha and Kunti will tell him the truth in the Virat yudh too ... or maybe before Karna comes with the army to virat yuddha ...

ARCHANA dear I totally think arjun never wasted his energy.THough many maharathis fled away took power naps, had boost and came back to fight with him again and again and fled away and though he was the one fighting army of maharathis and ocean of soldiers constantly .He never took a break instead fought witha smile on his face chatting with the kiddo casually.

Ohk now let us suppose that he wasted his energy at this point I would like to give a fact about this man with a mere gandeev

YESTERDAY MY DEAR FRIEND MEDHA TOLD ME that

Fact : Kauravas had 11 akshohinis Army

Arjuna Destroyed 7 akshohinis alone just to revenge Abhimanyu that too within 4-5 last days.

🤣

An Akshauhini (Sanskrit: ), was an ancient battle formation that consisted of 21,870 chariots (Sanskrit ratha); 21,870 elephants; 65,610 cavalry and 109,350 infantry,^[1] as per the Mahabharata (Adi Parva 2.15-23).

I think he was never devoid of energy...
