The Indian football player who was called the best Asian goalkeeper in 1958 is Peter Thangaraj. He was voted Asia's best goalkeeper that year and was a legendary figure in Indian football, also earning the Arjuna Award in 1967. Thangaraj represented India at the 1956 and 1960 Olympics and was instrumental in India's success in various international tournaments during his era.

The mention of "18" in the query likely corresponds to the year 1958, the actual year he was recognized as the best goalkeeper in Asia. No other Indian football goalkeeper was specifically noted as the best Asian goalkeeper in 2018 or any similar recent year according to the available information. Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, a prominent contemporary Indian goalkeeper, has many achievements but was not cited as the best Asian goalkeeper in 2018.
