Could not determine java version from '11.0.1' when try to run gradle command

Question

I am able to build my Android project from Android Studio. However, I am getting following error when I try to run a gradlew command. How can I resolve this?

admin:(my/branch)$ ./gradlew clean assembleDebug --stacktrace

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not determine java version from '11.0.1'.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.
