jQuery Datatable Sort Date列的一种简单方法

Question

My date column is not sorting properly, it looks like sorting a normal number and not a proper date column.

I use the javascript below for all the datatables I have in my application, so it is generic for all, that's why I don't set the columns information, I leave it to be selected automatic by the datatable. In this way is it possible to make my date column to be sort correctly? Or do I have to set something such as column format?

 table.dataTable({
                stateSave: true,
                "bLengthChange": false,
                "bFilter": searchable,
                "columnDefs": [{
                    "orderable": false,
                    "targets": [0]
                }],
                "order": [
                    [1, 'asc']
                ],
                "bSort": true,
                "lengthMenu": [
                    [10, 20, 50, 100, 150, -1],
                    [10, 20, 50, 100, 150, "All"]
                ],
                "iDisplayLength": 10,
                "pageLength": 10
            });

Below is my view, I use MVC

  <table class="table table-bordered" id="datatableList">

        <thead class="heading">
            <tr>
                <th class="table-checkbox"><input type="checkbox" class="group-checkable" /></th>
                <th>ID</th>
                <th>Date</th>
                <th>Account Name</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>

        <tbody>

            @foreach (var item in Model.AllLabourCharges.OrderByDescending(x => x.Date))
            {
                <tr>
                    <td><input type="checkbox" class="checkboxes" value="@item.Id" /></td>
                    <td>@Html.ActionLink(item.Id.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).PadLeft(4, '0'), "Form", new { item.Id })</td>
                    <td>@item.Date.Date.ToString(GeneralHelper.DateFormat)</td>
                    <td>@Html.EmptyIfNull(x => item.Account.AccountName)</td>
                </tr>
            }

        </tbody>
    </table>
