The delivery proved decisive as India went on to win the game on the final ball of the match.
With 13 needed off the last 3 deliveries, left-arm spinner Mohammad Nawaz bowled a high full toss, which Kohli dispatched over the deep square leg fence.
The stylish batter protested after hitting the ball, asking the umpires to review it for a no-ball. The umpires eventually called it a no-ball.
Akhtar seemed unhappy with the decision and posted a cryptic tweet.
"Umpire bhaiyo, food for thought aaj raat ke liye," he tweeted.
