Lets admit it,a major ICC event has far more prestige than any test series across various countries unless we're talking about Ashes.So for England and Australia fans,you can probably replace the #1 ranking in tests with Ashes.You have 3 ICC events mentioned above and the Ashes.Micheal Clarke was so close to achieve this feat.
Champions trophy doesnt need to be disregarded as you're competing against all the best teams in one tournament.Its better than any #1 ranking you achieve in ODI cricket.
Anyway depends in how you look at it i guess.There's just more hype,money and prestige involved in limited over formats than a test series.Its how ICC have marketed the game.
