As mentioned in the steps in the thread you linked, the following commands can revert to the default cursor theme by changing the themename.
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme elementary
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme x-cursor-theme /usr/share/icons/elementary/cursor.theme 21
sudo update-alternatives --set x-cursor-theme /usr/share/icons/elementary/cursor.theme
These three commands will revert these changes. You may need to reboot for these changes to take effect.
