Hello,

It might be late for you, but might still be useful for other people

You can add k8s.serviceAnnotations on pilot component, like the following

spec:
  components:
    pilot:
      enabled: true
      k8s:
        serviceAnnotations:
          ad.datadoghq.com/endpoints.check_names: '["istio"]'
