DataTable csv export fails in chrome but is working in IE

I'm submitting a ... (check one with "x")

[x] bug report
[ ] feature request

Current behavior
application built using this library is working fine during serve at local in chrome as well as in IE. But when the built files are deployed to the required site location, csv export feature is triggering a url transition and is getting stuck over there with 404 Not found error.

Expected behavior
On click of Csv export button download required file to the system from Chrome/IE browser.

Please tell us about your environment:

Operating system : Windows 10
IDE : VS Code

Found out a work around to make the else part that handles download in chrome browser to make work.

Replaced following code inside the else part :

const data = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
          var link = document.createElement('a');
          link.href = data;
          link.download = this.props.exportFilename + '.csv';
          link.click();
          setTimeout(function () {
            // For Firefox it is necessary to delay revoking the ObjectURL
            window.URL.revokeObjectURL(data);
          }, 100);

This change in the DataTable.js file worked as expected in the built application.

@JEEVANJGA Did you ever bring this into the main code? I'm still seeing this issue in Firefox and Chrome inside Sharepoint.
