JaegerTracing : Jaeger Ingester unable to read from Kafka Queue and store into ElasticSearch - docker

Question

I am new to Jaeger and Kafka,
I am trying to use Kafka as intermediate buffer.
I am using OpenTelemetry to send data to Jaeger-Collector directly using -Dotel.exporter.jaeger.endpoint.
Jaeger-Collector is deployed on Kubernetes and the Kafka is on another network but is accessible. I can confirm that the traces are sent to Jaeger-collector.
On hitting the /metrics of collector and output tells me that spans were written successfully to Kafka.
jaeger_kafka_spans_written_total{status="success"} 21
The Collector logs indicate what topic I am writing to
{"Brokers":["myKafkaBroker......"}},"topic":"tp6"}
I want to get this (Span) data from Kafka Queue to ElasticSearch. To do this I am starting the Jaeger Ingester as follows
docker run -e "SPAN_STORAGE_TYPE=elasticsearch" jaegertracing/jaeger-ingester:1.22 --kafka.consumer.topic=tp6 --kafka.consumer.brokers='myKafkaBroker' --es.tls.skip-host-verify
But the container is stopped after fatal error
{"level":"fatal","ts":1615546463.7784193,"caller":"command-line-arguments/main.go:64","msg":"Failed to init storage factory","error":"failed to create primary Elasticsearch client: health check timeout: Head \"http://127.0.0.1:9200\": dial tcp 127.0.0.1:9200: connect: connection refused: no Elasticsearch node available","stacktrace":"main.main.func1\n\tcommand-line-arguments/main.go:64\ngithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).execute\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra#v0.0.7/command.go:838\ngithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).ExecuteC\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra#v0.0.7/command.go:943\ngithub.com/spf13/cobra.(*Command).Execute\n\tgithub.com/spf13/cobra#v0.0.7/command.go:883\nmain.main\n\tcommand-line-arguments/main.go:113\nruntime.main\n\truntime/proc.go:204"}
The elasticsearch and ingester are being run on the same machine using docker. The elasticsearch is running on docker using
docker run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node"ocker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.11.2
I have disabled TLS so that shouldn't be a problem. I am unable to get this to work.
