Why is Cloudfront using https (http over tls) to origin instead of http2 ?

Question

I have enabled http2 on cloudfront and alb.Below is an access log from alb.

As you can see cloudfront is using https i.e http over tls instead of http2.  
What could be the issue ?

Accepted Answer

Kindly note that CloudFront is currently not supporting HTTP/2 towards origins. The connection from CloudFront back to your origin server is still made using HTTP/1.1:

New – HTTP/2 Support for Amazon CloudFront - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-http2-support-for-cloudfront/ 
HTTP version - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/RequestAndResponseBehaviorCustomOrigin.html#RequestCustomHTTPVersion
