Trying to scrape data from web page with content-encoding: br, doesn't work with options like "JSON=true" or "gzip=true"

[Sathyajith95]

const request = require("request-promise")
const cheerio = require("cheerio")
const fs = require("fs")
const json2csv = require("json2csv").Parser;

const coronaURL = "https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/india/";

(async() => {
const coronaData = []
const response = await request({
uri: coronaURL,
headers: {
accept: "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,image/apng,/;q=0.8,application/signed-exchange;v=b3;q=0.9",
"accept-encoding": "gzip, deflate, br",
"accept-language": "en-US,en-IN;q=0.9,en;q=0.8,kn;q=0.7",
},
gzip: true,
});

let $ = cheerio.load(response)
let totalCases = $('div[class="maincounter-number"] > span[style="color:#aaa"]').text().trim();
//let totalCases = $('div[class="title_wrapper"]> h1').text().trim();

console.log(totalCases);
coronaData.push({
    totalCases
});

console.log(coronaData);
const json2csvParser = new json2csv();
const csv = json2csvParser.parse(coronaData);

fs.writeFileSync("./coronaCount.csv", csv, "utf-8")

}

)();

This is the node.js code.
I'm new to web-scrapping and node.js.
It returns an empty string. Can anyone please help me?
