Flutter - How to change the color of the text being selected by the cursor?

I need to change the color of the text being highlighted by the cursor. I am able to chagne the color of cursor, its selction and handler using textSelectionTheme. But, how can I change the color of the highlighted text?

ThemeData so far.

get _lightTheme => ThemeData(
      disabledColor: Colors.grey.shade400,
      textSelectionTheme: TextSelectionThemeData(
        cursorColor: AppPalette.primaryColorLight,
        selectionColor: AppPalette.primaryColorLight.withOpacity(0.5),
        selectionHandleColor: AppPalette.primaryColorLight,
      ),
);
