Drona made commander

The sage said to Janmajeya -
After the fall of Bhishma, Duryodhana was wondering who would lead the army. He asked Karna to become the commander. Karna was ready but Kripacharya said it was not proper to make Karna the commander while Drona was around.
Duryodhana agreed and declared Drona the commander.
All the Kuru warriors went to Drona and Duryodhana said he was making the Guru the commander of the Kaurava army.
Drona said he was ready to accept the role on one condition. Karna would not fight in the battle.
Duryodhana said Karna will not fight close to you.
Duryodhana agreed and Drona was made the commander.
Drona said he would form the spiral formation and trap the Pandavas.

This pleased Duryodhana who announced the commander's name to all.
