Deserialising XML string without namespaces

I have a xml string without any namespaces that needs to deserialise to an object that has namespace in
XmlType attribute. When I try to deserialise it with XmlSerializer, all my properties are not populated.

    [XmlType("SomeClass", AnonymousType = true, Namespace = "http://abc.some.namespace")]
    public class SomeClass
    {
        [XmlElement(Order = 0)]
        public string Label { get; set; }

        [XmlElement(Order = 1)]
        public int Number { get; set; }
    }

var xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SomeClass));
var xmlToDeserialize = @"<SomeClass><Label>ABC</Label><Number>10</Number></SomeClass>";
SomeClass result = (SomeClass)xs.Deserialize(new StringReader(xmlToDeserialize));

To fix it, I need to add my own
XmlTextReader that will replace it with the namespace from class. I also want to be able to specify node names that I don’t want to namespace replacement which usually the root node.

    public class XmlNamespaceReplaceReader : XmlTextReader
    {
        private readonly string _oldNamespaceUri;
        private readonly string _newNamespaceUri;
        private readonly string[] _excludeNodeNames;

        public XmlNamespaceReplaceReader(TextReader reader, string oldNamespaceUri, string newNamespaceURI, params string[] excludeNodeNames) : base(reader)
        {
            _oldNamespaceUri = oldNamespaceUri;
            _newNamespaceUri = newNamespaceURI;
            _excludeNodeNames = excludeNodeNames;
        }

        public override string NamespaceURI
        {
            get
            {
                if (NodeType != XmlNodeType.Attribute &&
                    base.NamespaceURI == _oldNamespaceUri &&
                    !_excludeNodeNames.Contains(Name))
                {
                    return _newNamespaceUri;
                }
                else
                {
                    return base.NamespaceURI;
                }
            }
        }
    }

This is how its used

var xs = new XmlSerializer(typeof(SomeClass));
var xmlToDeserialize = @"<SomeClass><Label>ABC</Label><Number>10</Number></SomeClass>";
SomeClass result2 = (SomeClass)xs.Deserialize(new XmlNamespaceReplaceReader(new StringReader(xmlToDeserialize),
                string.Empty, "http://abc.some.namespace", "SomeClass"));
