28-year-old partially visually impaired Zeshan Abbasi, here to play World Cup Cricket for the Blind, sipped the contents of a plastic bottle on the table as he mistook it for mineral water during breakfast, sources said.
He was rushed to the multi-speciality MS Ramaiah Hospital where he was treated and kept under observation before being discharged a few hours later.
"Abbasi was discharged at 4.30 pm. He is absolutely fine", President of the Hospital, Dr Shetty said.
Shetty said earlier Abbasi was subjected to endoscopy and certain tests and all reports were normal.
All India Cricket Association for the Blind President, S P Nagesh, said the hotel management had tendered a written apology but they have been asked to investigate and "tell us how such a lapse occurred. We are awaiting their reply".
Pakistan Team Manager Sultan Shah said "such an incident that has occurred accidentally should not and will not become an impediment in Indo-Pak cricket relations. We have a very good understanding with the team here and the tournament is being played in a very good atmosphere".
"However, what we want to know from the hotel management who have orally apologised to us, is how such an incident happened and who is responsible for such negligence. It has to be ensured that such incidents do not recur. Otherwise, we are happy with the arrangements here and are focused on the game", he said.
