Type Mismatch while using FlatFileItemReader BeanWrapperFieldSetMapper from String to Date

Question

I am trying to batch process a file which has date field. Now when I fetch Date field using FlatFileItemReader it comes as a String. I am trying to map it to following entity

@Entity
@Data
public class Customers {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    @Column(name = "id")
    private Long id;
    
    @Column(name = "customer_name")
    private String customer_name;
    
    @Column(name="created_at", nullable=false)
    @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
    public Date createdAt;
    
    @PrePersist
    protected void onCreate() {
        createdAt = new Date();
    }
    
}

My File is having values like "id","customer_name","created_at" 1,Customer1,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 2,Customer2,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 3,Customer3,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 4,Customer4,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 5,Customer5,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 6,Customer6,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 7,Customer7,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 8,Customer8,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 9,Customer9,"2024-07-06 22:51:31" 10,Customer10,"2024-07-06 22:51:31"

Here is my reader

@Bean
    FlatFileItemReader<Customers> reader(){
        FlatFileItemReader<Customers> itemReader = new FlatFileItemReader<>();
        itemReader.setResource(new FileSystemResource("src/main/resources/customers.csv"));
        itemReader.setName("customerReader");
        itemReader.setLinesToSkip(1);
        itemReader.setLineMapper(linemapper());
        return itemReader;
    }
    private LineMapper<Customers> linemapper(){
        DefaultLineMapper<Customers> lineMapper = new DefaultLineMapper<>();
        DelimitedLineTokenizer lineTokenizer = new DelimitedLineTokenizer();
        lineTokenizer.setDelimiter(",");
        lineTokenizer.setStrict(false);
        lineTokenizer.setNames("id","customer_name","createdAt");
        BeanWrapperFieldSetMapper<Customers> fieldSetMapper = new BeanWrapperFieldSetMapper<>();
        fieldSetMapper.setTargetType(Customers.class);
        lineMapper.setLineTokenizer(lineTokenizer);
        lineMapper.setFieldSetMapper(fieldSetMapper);
        return lineMapper;
    }

I am getting following error

Is there somehow we can typcast one field to Date in FlatFileItemReader before mapping
