Utilizing Angular 5 DataTables Plugin: Passing Data from HTML to TypeScript Function

I am currently working with the component.html code below, which is using a DataTables plugin. The issue I am facing is that when I select rows and click the Delete button, the handleDelete() function is called. However, I am unsure of how to pass the selected rows to the handleDelete() function. I have come across a example from DataTables Editor that uses jQuery to achieve this, but I would like to stick to using only Angular code. I have attempted to name the table and use an [(ngModel)] parameter, but this resulted in compile errors.

jQuery parameter
var rows = table.rows( {selected: true} ).indexes();

component.html
<sa-datatable
  [options]="{
    data: sysMsgs,
    columns: [
      {data: 'checked'},
      {data: 'rowid'},
      {data: 'senderID'},
      {data: 'message'},
      {data: 'dateCreated'}
    ],
    buttons: [ 'copy', 'csv', 'pdf', 'print',
      {
        extend: 'selected',
        text: 'Delete',
        action: handleDelete()
      }
    ],
    columnDefs: [
      {
        targets: 0,
        orderable: false,
        className: 'select-checkbox'
      },
      {
        targets: [2],
        visible: true
      }
    ],
    select: {
      style: 'os',
      selector: 'td:first-child'
    },
    order: [[ 1, 'asc' ]],
    searching: true,
    search: {
      smart: false                  
    }               
  }"
  tableClass="table table-striped table-bordered table-hover">
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <th data-hide="mobile-p">Select</th>
        <th data-hide="mobile-p">ID</th>
        <th data-hide="mobile-p">Sender</th> 
        <th data-hide="mobile-p">Message</th>
        <th data-hide="mobile-p">Date Sent</th>
      </tr>
    </thead>
</sa-datatable>
