For use this plugin, you should import the js file:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdn.datatables.net/plug-ins/1.10.11/sorting/date-uk.js"></script>

and especified the column that contain the date.

......
columnDefs: [
   { type: 'date-uk', targets: 0 }
 ]
......

You can fix the sorting issue with php.

$mydate = strtotime($startdate);
$newformat = date('d-m-Y',$mydate);
echo '<tr>';
echo '  <td data-sort="'. $mydate .'">'.$newformat .'</td>';
