It's ridiculous. Mark Waugh was going on about it in the first game too, and he's not even an outstanding club cricketer yet ffs.
Is Abbott actually a highly-rated young player or is just a case of Waugh seeing him once or twice on TV and liking the look of him?

He's very highly rated by NSW Cricket. He wasn't rated anywhere near as highly by some of those at a club side (until this season) Parramatta but it's not just a Mark Waugh thing.

I do think Mark Waugh thinks more highly of his batting than even the blokes at NSW Cricket who over-rate him, though. Waugh constantly compares him to Henriques who has always shown far more batting potential.

He Can Bat tho

I can see Abbott playing a couple of games for Aus as a bit part all rounder who everyone wants out of the team.
