'Error inflating class com.google.android.exoplayer2.ui.StyledPlayerView

I was using SimpleExoPlayerView till now and now updated my Exoplayer library to latest and it is removed and has been asked to replace with PlayerView But it is also deprecated and has been asked to implement StyledPlayerView But after implementing the StyledPlayerView I am getting a crash Error inflating class com.google.android.exoplayer2.ui.StyledPlayerView

app level build.gradle:

android {
...
compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
...
}

dependencies {
...
implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.17.1'
...
}
