Swadag was born in Yazhd, and spent most of his childhood and adolescence there. In 1970, Swadag made his debut for Yazhd, in a test match again Nishapur. Only 5 years later, Trishul made his national debut, as an opening Wicketkeeper-Batsman, taking the captaincy in 1972 and 1973 in ODIs and Tests respectively, all before the age of 30. From then on, Swadag would play until 1990, when he retired in a Test against India, scoring his 41st Century in the process. He held the record for most centuries until 1999, when Sachin Tendulkar broke his record. Since then, he enjoyed a 6 year stint as the Head Coach of the Nishari Men's Team from 2004-2010, in which he guided the men's team to the trophy in the 2007 ODI World Cup.
