I had to add below config in the NuGet.config file located under C:\Users\userid\AppData\Roaming\NuGet in order to resolve above issue

<configuration>
<packageSources>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/" />   
  </packageSources>

Problem was Visual Studio version.

Solution was to create MSBuildSdksPath environment variable that is pointing to dotnet\sdk{{version}}\Sdks, like on the following link https://github.com/aspnet/Announcements/issues/231
